And on nearly every page, Gay’s raw, powerful prose plants a flag, facg down s of shame and self-loathg by reclaimg the body she never should have had to lose.

On the one hand, this is an amazgly hont acunt of Roxane Gay's life wh an unly body, as she lls , which veloped after she was gang raped at 12. I wanted to love this one, I really did, pecially sce Gay's novel An Untamed State is one of my all-time favor.
ROXANE GAY ON THE TRMAS OF THE BODY
And no, not jt bee is important and is heartbreakg - which is both - but bee Gay is one of the bt wrers I've ever known. This is Gay's memoir om the time she was gang raped at twelve-years-old, to her later need to e food to build a fortrs around herself, to her more recent life as a woman tegorized as the horrendo phrase "super morbidly obe". Gay's self-awarens is paful to read as she talks about experienc narrow seatg on airl, movie theatr or rtrants, or at events.
IN HUNGER, ROXANE GAY SAYS WHAT NO ONE ELSE WILL ABOUT BEG FAT AMERI
Gay is not happy wh her body, but also angry at the world for beg a place that mak her unhappy wh her body.
) I wonr if Roxane Gay was ed ready to wre this book -- she am as a difficult experience to wre and fish and publish and there is equivotn on every page, sometim every sentence, and nothg like the stronger, more direct prose and voice of her says/op-eds on femism and society. Roxane Gay's voice was born and champned via the Inter, which means that a lot of "Hunger" bears the stream-of-nscns rmaly of blog entri.
For example, I wish wrers like Gay, who surely knows what real hate is, wouldn't e the word "hate" so much for banal occurrenc everyday life that we simply don't like or don't prefer: food, habs, celebri, mor nvenienc, awkward moments.
