Reviews"An inspiring and timely story told with honesty, humor, and a generous heart." -Katherine Scholes, Best-Selling Author of The Rain Queen "This memoir is honest, intelligent, and generous. . . . How do you make such raw, complex, personal material feel like a cozy chat over a cuppa? . . . Magic, I suspect." -Lindsey Little, Author of the James Munkers Series "Simone has taken a lifelong secret and transformed it into a work of art that will touch those who can relate and those who want to understand." -Rachael Steil, Author of Running in Silence: My Drive for Perfection and the Eating Disorder That Fed It
SynopsisStalked by Demons, Guarded by Angels: The Girl with the Eating Disorder is a window into the depths of dysfunction as experienced through bulimia, binge-eating disorder, self-harm, and suicidality. Carrying messages of self-loathing and inadequacy from her childhood, Simone explores key relationships and how they shape her-for better and for worse-over the decades. Stalked by Demons, Guarded by Angels offers vulnerable insight into an oft-hidden world. It doesn't pretend to answer all the questions or solve all the problems but instead attempts to elicit an understanding of behaviors many people might find inexplicable. Simone's journey into the world of psychological recovery is raw and personal, as full of relapse and regret as it is hope for the future. Her road to recovery is not a destination; it comprises learning a new way of being. She leaves the reader with a vision of freedom from disordered eating-as she imagines it to be.
