Ilustration Supposing Books Monkey taming

"You've eaten too much, you fat pig."

When Jessica was thirteen years old, she met the Monkey.

The Monkey lived inside her: a driving, fiery voice telling her that thinness was the only way. The only way to be safe, to be good, to be acceptable and above all, to escape from the cold, looming threat of approaching adulthood. Jessica listened to the Monkey, and it consumed her.

This is the illuminating story of a teenage girl's wanderings in darkness: the spiral down into madness, the terrible realities of an adolescent psychiatric unit, and the stark choice that she must either tame her monster - or die.

Through memory, reflection, and enduring black humour, Jessica makes a tenuous peace with the world and with her emerging adult self.

Piece Of Books Monkey taming

Nonostante la storia faccia capo al vissuto dellautrice, cosa che si sente fin dal principio, ci sono state parti del romanzo in cui ho risentito un po della lentezza. Comunque, le emozioni sono forti, impattanti, e che si parli di Scimmia o di Anoressia il risultato è lo stesso: la bestia è nera e combatterla richiede sacrifici e sforzi sovrumani.Parlare di malattie mentali pone lindividuo in contesti difficili, soprattutto in relazione al sentire comune, ma Fathallah ha il grande pregio di far

This book's absolutely worth reading for everyone, especially for teen girls who want to lose weight because of peer pressure or because they feel they're not enough. I think that everybody can learn a lot from this book, as I did. Well, I basically ate it because, reading word after word and recognizing myself in every page, gave me an incredible sensation. It made me understand that I wasn't the only girl who suffered that way. I read this book at the age of 14, now I'm 17; this story helped

I have read this book over and over since I bought it in 2007. I would say I have given it a read at least once a year since then - so about 8 or 9 times. Every time I read it, I am reminded of what a crazy world we live in, and how even though people try to portray that they are perfect, they are still only human, with hopes and dreams, fears and insecurities. Judith Fathallah has the most tender way of writing about something so ugly - her innocence has been taken, but who she is still exists

I first heard of Monkey Taming through a recommendation from my friend, and from the moment I started reading, I was automatically hooked. This book is mildly graphic (nothing major or traumatizing) since the author is referring to anorexia, so it's more appropriate for teenagers. I enjoyed this book a lot! It was very moving; at some points I felt as though I was about to cry. However, that didn't stop my from reading the book in a day. It really is remarkable how the author managed to fully

È un libro in parte autobiografico che racconta la vita di un' adolescente che, purtroppo come tante altre, soffre di anoressia. L'anoressia in questo libro viene spiegata molto bene e penso sia un libro che dovrebbero leggere tutti per avvicinarsi a questa malattia su cui, come dice il libro, non si sa molto. In alcune parti l'ho trovato noioso e fin troppo dettagliato ma nel complesso, soprattutto la fine, molto carino

You can tell that its own voices. Feels real and is well written.*it might be pretty triggering for some people at points, if you don't like seeing exact numbers (I mean weigh/ BMI).

I initially read this book ten years ago when I found it at my local library and I was in the grips of an eating disorder. It gave me so much comfort to know I wasnt alone and to start to feel like maybe recovery was a possibility. I loved the book a lot and could relate to many of the characters who were struggling in the book.I decided to reread it again recently, now that Ive been fully recovered for a number of years. I fell in love with it again. Yes it brought up so many somewhat painful
