How to disappear completely : on modern anorexia / by Osgood, Kelsey.(CARDINAL)404368;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 263-266)."At fourteen, Kelsey Osgood became fascinated by the stories of women who starved themselves. She devoured their memoirs and magazine articles, committing the most salacious details of their cautionary tales to memory--how little they ate, their lowest weights, and their merciless exercise regimes--to learn what it would take to be the very best anorectic. When she was hospitalized for anorexia at fifteen, she found herself in an existential wormhole: how can one suffer from something one has actively sought out? Through her own decade-long battle with anorexia, which included three lengthy hospitalizations, Osgood harrowingly describes the haunting and competitive world of inpatient facilities populated with other adolescents, some as young as ten years old. With attuned storytelling and unflinching introspection, Kelsey Osgood unpacks the modern myths of anorexia, examining the cult-like underbelly of eating disorders in the young, as she chronicles her own rehabilitation. How to Disappear Completely is a brave, candid and emotionally wrenching memoir that explores the physical, internal, and social ramifications of eating disorders and subverts many of the popularly held notions of the illness and, most hopefully, the path to recovery.

Inside of me / by McHaffie, Hazel,author.(CARDINAL)388133;
Set within the topical debate about size-zero models, celebrities changing gender, runaway teenagers and an image-obsessed culture, this novel gets inside the skin of a family torn apart by distorted perceptions and conflicting identities. Three narrators tell the story. India Grayson is only 8 when her beloved father, Victor, suddenly vanishes, leaving a pile of clothes neatly folded on a windy beach in Scotland. India is devastated and bargains with God: I'll stop eating chocolate if you send my Daddy back to me. Now 15 and seriously anorexic, she's convinced that she heard his voice on a crowded London station, and sets out to track him down, aided and abetted by her best friend, Mercedes. Mother, Tonya, is torn between mollifying her troubled daughter, and her grave doubts about the man she married. Who exactly was he? What dark secrets were haunting him? Could he be involved somehow in the disappearance of three teenage girls? Just how healthy was his relationship with his daughter? How much information should she share with India? Or the police? Chris Taylor is a grieving parent struggling to find security in a florist shop in London, who takes in a runaway 16 year old schoolgirl, and helps her find a way into her chosen career. The mystery behind Victor's disappearance is much more challenging than Tonya ever dreamed of, and the revelation when it comes rocks the fragile truce she has established with her daughter. This book will resonate with everyone who has ever agonised over their own body image or identity, and any parent who must learn to relinquish control to their child. It brings medical ethics alive and puts it firmly at the heart of everyday family dynamics. --
