can anyone recommend some good reading on anorexia/bulimia and feminism?
memoir styles preferred, but all suggestions are needed.
thanks so much.

good chance you've already read it, but Appetites: Why Women Want by Caroline Knapp is hands-down your best pick.

I second that. Appetites is really excellent, and a good feminist examination of many problems women have, not just EDs.

I'm currently reading My Name Is Caroline. It's memoir-style (bulimic), though not particularly femenist (or at least not yet, I'm not too far in...).
