Publisher's Note
This vivid and emotionally wrenching memoir of the author's lifelong love affair with bulimia and anorexia offers a devastating critique of the American obsession with food and body image.

Why would a talented young girl go through the looking glass and step into a netherworld where up is down and food is greed, where death is honor and flesh is weak? Why enter into a love affair with hunger, drugs, sex, and death? Marya Hornbacher sustains both anorexia and bulimia through five lengthy hospitalizations, endless therapy, and the loss of family, friends, jobs, and ultimately, any sense of what it means to be "normal." By the time she is in college, Hornbacher is in the grip of a bout with anorexia so horrifying that it will forever put to rest the romance of wasting away. In this vivid, emotionally wrenching memoir, she re-created the experience and illuminated that tangle of personal, family, and cultural causes underlying eating disorders. Wasted is the story of one woman's travels to the darker side of reality, and her decision to find her way back--on her own terms.

Industry Reviews
"Hers is one of the wisest considerations in print of the baffling disease-obsession-addiction that turns women (and some men) against themselves....She is more than a survivor, though; she is a writer of singular clarity and spirit."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Kate Regan (01/11/1998)

"Bulimic since she was 9 years old, anorexic since she was about 15, the author reveals how and why women with these eating disorders can be helped and, most of all, how long it takes for that help to take hold."
Kabat-Zinn

"'Wasted' is written from the raw, disintegrated center of young pain: there is power in this approach; there are also limitations."
Turner

"Hornbacher (whose weight continued to be a topic of discussion during the publicity tour for WASTED) describes her eating disorder as an 'addiction,' borrowing terminology and concepts that originated in Alcoholics Anonymous. An organization based on the idea that it's therapeutic to embrace your disease as chronic ('I'm X and I'm an alcoholic') and to publicly confess, in detail, your personal journey to the point of "hitting bottom," AA may well be the most significant force behind the proliferation of this kind of memoir. The movement has transformed illness from a metaphor into an identity."
Miller
