(no subject)
has anyone in this community read jonathan rosen's novel "eve's apple"? it's the story of a recent college graduate struggling with post eating disorder control issues from the perspective of her boyfriend who very eerily eroticizes the role of "healer" in their relationship (to the point of eroticizing the eating disorder itself.) it's intentionally provocative and a very good read if you're strong enough to delve into that sort of intensely conflicted territory...i'm not sure if i am. this book has a special way of breaking down all of my secret defense mechanisms and basically making me feel like shit.
anyhow, i'm reading the book for a class, and i know i'm going to have far too much to say on the subject, so i thought this might be a good arena for discussion if anyone else is familiar with the novel.
