BOOK EVENT SUSIE ORBACH
Borders Books, 283 Buchanan Street, 222 7700. Wed 9 Jan.
‘Not for me thanks — I'm on a diet . . . oh what the hell. I'll start again on Monday.” Recognise this? Anyone who has ever dieted will and. considering approximately 480:: of women age 25—35 are on some kind of diet. it's
frighteningly common.
It is because of this trend that Susie Orbach wrote her 1978 classic Fat Is A Feminist Issue. tackling our unhealthy attitude towards size. weight and body image. Two decades on. she has followed it up with On Eating (Penguin £4.99) whicn looks at the role food plays in everyday life. Orbach believes the problem of body fasosm and our continual struggle with food is reaching a ‘fantastically serious level'. She sees the situation as a public health emergency, as women start to diet at a vOunger age and more men than ever before worry about what
they eat.
After many years as a psychotherapist working with women (including Princess Diana) with eating problems. Orbach feels much of the trouble stems from society and the media telling us we should conform to a mono-culture in which we all look the same — skinny. This attitude causes people to develop an abnormal attitude towards food and Orbach uses this book to help women break free from the destructive dieting-and-denial merry-go-round and transform their eating habits into ‘an ambiguous source of pleasure'.
