ISBN: 9781668060315 - tell me how you eat: food, power, and the will to live (26 risultati)

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. An intimate, "stunningly profound, and politically rousing" (Sophie Lewis, author of Enemy Feminisms) exploration of how and why we eat, and the relationship between food and empowerment, through the historic feasts and fasts of radicals and tyrants. Inspired by writer Amber Husain's unorthodox route to healing from anorexia, Tell Me How You Eat examines not just how society views the refusal to eat, but how we understand the meaning and power of food. Suspecting that the standard courses of treatment--as disempowering as they are ineffective--might in fact be part of the underlying problem, Husain took part in an experimental psylocibin treatment study. Where the medical model typically tries to fix the difficult non-eater, this trial opened her mind to the idea that there might be more to fix beyond the self--that our relationship with food might be closely entwined with our outlook on the world. Through five chapters exploring hunger, restriction, gorging, feeding, and the making of political demands, Husain turns away from thinking about how people are shaped by food to think instead about how food can inspire people to reshape the world. Each chapter searches for reasons to eat and live through histories ranging from pus-drinking medieval nuns to Black Panther breakfast programs; from 1950s lesbian dinner parties to modern-day Gazan food bloggers. In a culture that insists "you are what you eat," and makes every bite a fraught moral choice, Husain argues that we will only feel truly nourished when we can eat in the spirit of restoring a collective right to food. "Tell Me How You Eat will challenge you to think about food less as something insular and more as a meaningful resource that can shape the world at large" (Eater).…
