13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl (Paperback)

'In subject and voice, there are echoes of Margaret Atwood's The Edible Woman and Janice Galloway's The Trick Is to Keep Breathing, but neither has the wit of 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl' * Irish Times *
The title of Mona Awad's debut novel might suggest we're just looking at fat here, but really it's a novel about obsessively hating your own flesh... Devastating' * Emerald Street *
'[A] beautiful, necessary book' -- Roxane Gay
Honest, searing, and necessary... [13 Ways] peels back the curtain on the struggles of entering womanhood from body image, to relationships, to merely navigating the oh-so-cruel world' * Elle *
Awad deftly captures the many indignities that she - that women - experience around food and weight... Simultaneously tart and tender, 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl is stunning' * Washington Post *
'Shocking, sad, important and tender; this is a powerful rollercoaster of a read' * Daily Mail *
[A] clever debut... The themes may be sobering but Awad examines them with a deliciously wry humour' * Mail on Sunday *
