Trapped, anorexia victim presentation

Book Review by: AssiaDemil    

Original Author: Marya Horrnbacher
This abstract was translated from Piégée, Memoire d'une anorexique
More than an auto-biography, Marya is telling us that the anorexia sufferer condition she''s been through not only affected
her but is still,silently,damaging too many young girls''everyday life.
In her book,entitled "Trapped, anorexia victim description" Marya Horrnbacher uses the right words to tell the story of her own life, her story related to anorexia along with bulimia. The words she uses are shocking but they do express deep sincerity from the very beginnig of the book to the ultimate page.
Oscillating between anorexia illustrated with a 23.5 light weight and bulimia with a relatively 61kg heavy weight,she''s today overcome those important eating disorders leaving a genuine ray of hope to all the girls who are trapped in Ana''s arms.
Ana is the personified name Marya has chosen for anorexia; Ana, who ruined her life and in the shape of an angel,slowly but
surely, led her to the doors of Paradise.The author reveals the steps she had to put up with in her turmoiled life, her strange tie with food.And, far from being proud, ashamed, or having in mind to make whatever show or exhibition,she opens her heart and talks endlessly, searching a way out, a bit of life.At the end of the story, even if our ayes are filled with tears, the smile on our face expresses hope.
