display_description
A mother recounts her daughter's battle with anorexia in this "affecting and informative memoir" (Booklist).
In this chronicle of a family's struggle with anorexia nervosa, journalist and professor Harriet Brown recounts in mesmerizing and horrifying detail her daughter Kitty's journey from near-starvation to renewed health. Brave Girl Eating is an intimate, shocking, compelling, and ultimately uplifting look at the ravages of a mental illness that affects more than 18 million Americans.
"One of the most up to date, relevant, and honest accounts of one family's battle with the life-threatening challenges of anorexia. Brown has masterfully woven science, history, and heart throughout this compelling and tender story." —Lynn S. Grefe, Chief Executive Officer, National Eating Disorders Association
"As a woman who once knew the grip of a life-controlling eating disorder, I held my breath reading Harriet Brown's story. As a mother of daughters, I wept for her. Then cheered." —Joyce Maynard, New York Times-bestselling author of Count the Ways
