Synopsis

Coy, delicate Ruth Simon has been living with a secret. When Joseph, her lover, pries into her diary, suspecting that she has been hiding part of herself from him, he finds a cool, devastating narrative of self-hatred and punitive retribution: the chronicle of Ruth's battle with food.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Ruth Simon is beautiful, smart, talented, and always hungry. As a teenager, she starved herself almost to death, and though outwardly healed, inwardly she remains dangerously obsessed with food. For Joseph Zimmerman, Ruth's tormented relationship with eating is a source of deep distress and erotic fascination. Driven by his love for Ruth, and haunted by his own secrets, Joseph sets out to unravel the mystery of hunger and denial. This gripping debut novel is a powerful exploration of appetite, love, and desire.
