Description
Anorexia, bulimia and binge eating are the topics explored by contemporary writers in this volume on French, German and Italian women's writing. Eating disorders are presented as both a rebellion against and a conformity to gendered societal norms, helping to describe and redefine their portrayal in present-day Europe.
