Description

Purge is a beautifully crafted memoir that has a Girl, Interrupted feel. In this raw and engaging account of her months in rehab, Nicole Johns documents her stay in a residential remedy facility for eating disorders. Her prose is lucid and vivid, as she seamlessly switches verb tenses and moves through time. She unearths several important themes: body image and sexuality, sexual assault and relationships, and the struggle to piece together one’s path in life. Even as other books about eating disorders and remedy may sugarcoat the harsh realities of living with and recovering from an eating disorder, Purge does not hold back. The writer presents an honest, detailed account of her experience with remedy, avoiding the clichéd happily-ever-after ending Even as still offering hope to those that struggle with eating disorders, in addition to any individual who has watched a loved one fight to get better from an eating disorder. Purge sends a message: though the road is also rough, in the end there may be hope.
