Nearly everyone's life is touched in some way by an eating disorder. In this emotionally resonant and compelling memoir, short-listed for the Books for a Better Life Award, journalist and professor Harriet Brown recounts the heartbreaking yet enlightening story of her family’s journey through the nightmare of anorexia, covering an intensive 18-month period of her daughter Kitty’s fight with the illness, an experience that changed all of their lives. She also takes a critical look at traditional approaches to “curing” anorexia and provides an alternative method called the Maudsley approach--focusing on the whole family--that has had far more positive results than current accepted methods. A book for mothers to share with daughters and daughters to share with mothers, a provocative and soulful book club pick, and essential reading for families and professionals touched by anorexia, Brave Girl Eating is a guiding light that offers hope and help for coping with this devastating illness, and wise and heartfelt truths about the powerful love of family.
