Told in words and pictures, a memoir offers a look at a young woman's personal battle with anorexia and bulimia, from its onset at fourteen-years-old through her treatment and recovery in the years that followed. - Baker & Taylor
The author tells the story of her eating disorder using cartoons to illustrate her internal feelings and battle with bulimia. - Simon and Schuster
"Every day, meal by meal, millions of people suffer from eating disorders. I am one of them."
Nadia Shivack was fourteen years old when she met Ed, her eating disorder. Sometimes like an alien in her body, sometimes like a lover, Ed was unpredictable and exciting, but ultimately always dangerous and destructive.
At an inpatient unit unit of a hospital where she was taken for treatment, Nadia wrote and drew on napkins after meals in order to keep the food in and calm the outrageous voices in her head. These pictures, together with others drawn on notebook paper and a variety of other surfaces, tell an unflinchingly honest story of a woman's lifelong battle with anorexia and bulimia. Raw, brave, and brilliant, Nadia's journey takes readers to the intimate corners of these misunderstood diseases. You will never think about eating disorders in the same way again.
