Wasted : A Memoir Of Anorexia And Bulimia
Author : Marya Horbacher
The New York Times Book Review, Caroline Knapp : Wasted is a gritty, unflinching look at eating disorders, and Hornbacher's refusal to tie the story up in a neat packaged labeled "Triumph" or "Recover" speaks to her respect for their insidious power and persistence... at 23, still living in a "state of mutal antagonism" with her illness, can Hornbacher turn her experience into something larger than the sum of its harrowing parts? Wasted is written from the raw, disintegrated center of young pain : there is power in this apporach; there is also limitations. Entertainment Weekly : This is a terrifically well-written book... Her narrative ability is powerfully intact.
