Opis

Reflections can be deadly, at least in the mind of fifteen-year old Norah. Nurtured in an environment of self-hate and passive aggression, she finds comfort in dieting to the point of near starvation. With her family's reassurance, she builds a ladder of rigid willpower only to find the steps too slippery to sustain her. Abandoned by her parents and in the hands of strangers, Norah rages. Her uniquely internal battle is carefully drawn outside of her as she wages war on her imagined captors. In her mind, there is little doubt that there is anything more frightening than the prison of her body. A lively tale into the mind of a quite ordinary anorexic, Norah arrives at the final examination. Will she eat or die? It is her defining struggle that arouses the hope in the reader as she champions her recovery.
