A worthwhile tale about true nourishment that comes not from
[eating] but from engaging on a spiritual path. –Los Angeles
Times
In this wrenchingly honest, eloquent memoir, Bullitt-Jonas
describes a childhood darkened by the repressive shadows of her
alcoholic father and her emotionally reclusive mother, whose
demands for excellence, poise, and self-control drove Bullitt-Jonas
to develop an insatiable hunger.
What began with pilfering extra slices of bread at her parents’
dinner table turned into binges with cream pies and pancakes,
sometimes gaining as much as eleven pounds in four days. When the
family urged her father into treatment, the author recognized her
own addiction and embarked on the path to recovery by discovering
the spiritual hunger beneath her craving for food. Holy Hunger is a
brave and perceptive account of compulsion and the healing
process.
