A shocking, moving, bittersweet novel about all kinds of nourishment - and the lack of it.
Weight is a big issue in Carmen's life - not surprising when her mother is obsessed with dieting and is determined that her daughter will be thin. But with a long list of failed diets behind her and a mountain of empty wrappers under the bed, Carmen knows the comfort of forbidden food.
Swept off to Birmingham by her mum, Carmen finds her old life disappearing - her home, her friends and her father. With everything to gain and nothing to lose, Carmen starts to ask: if she were thin, very thin, could it all be different?
