In this intimate and searing memoir, the New York Times bestselling author Roxane Gay addresses the experience of living in a body that she calls "wildly undisciplined." She casts an insightful and critical eye over her childhood, teens and twenties - including the devastating act of violence that was a turning point in her young life - and bring readers into the present realities, pains and joys of her daily life. With the bracing candor, vulnerability, and authority that have made her one of the most admired voices of generation, Roxane Gay explores what it means to be overweight in a time when the bigger you are, the less you are seen. Hunger is a deeply personal memoir from one of our finest writers, and it tells a story that hasn't yet been told but need to be.
