Moore sincerely apologized and handed the woman a $20. Was she grateful? Of course not. She gave Moore a dirty look and hurried away. Keep in mind that the chicken dinner probably cost six bucks at the most. I am very sad for the author and immensely angry at a society that treats overweight people this way. I honestly had plumper galleries no idea that total strangers vocalized plumper galleries their disgust so readily, without thought to anyone's feelings. It really opened my eyes to the prejudices that obese people plumper galleries face. What Judith Moore has done is something almost every woman has done at some point in her life--belittle herself. Most women do not publish their self-loathing, however, and that is what makes this book so astonishing. Fat or thin, male or female, this book has something that everyone can understand. Heartwrenching and true, you'll end up wishing it was just really really good fiction. Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) See all 77 customer reviews...
