A New Name : Grace and

Healing for Anorexia

 By

Inter-Varsity Press
 The face of anorexia is not a glossy model in a perfume ad. It's a
starving animal, circling the empty cupboards, blank-eyed and
vacant. It's a face frozen in a rictus grin, mouthing lies. "I'm fine," it
says. "Everything is under control." "I have always felt hungry,"
says Emma Scrivener. "Not just for food, but for everything: from
money to recognition. I'm a human chasm, a vortex of insatiable
longing." Rescued from a disorder that nearly killed her, Emma is
now passionate about warning others about the dark and hidden
world she inhabited for too long. Harrowing, heart-breaking, human,
and humourous, this book will grip you from start to finish.
