3 posts | 2 read | 1 reading | 3 to read
Its time to bare it all about bodies! We all experience the world in a body, but we dont usually take the time to explore what it really means to have and live within one. Just as every person has a unique personality, every person has a unique body, and every body tells its own story. In Body Talk, thirty-seven writers, models, actors, musicians, and artists share essays, lists, comics, and illustrationsabout everything from size and shape to scoliosis, from eating disorders to cancer, from sexuality and gender identity to the use of makeup as armor. Together, they contribute a broad variety of perspectives on what its like to live in their particular bodiesand how their bodies have helped to inform who they are and how they move through the world. Come on in, turn the pages, and join the celebration of our diverse, miraculous, beautiful bodies!

Let me start by saying this is not a book I would have just picked up and read. This was a required reading book for me and it was not my favorite read. It was not bad, it just wasn‘t what I wanted in a book of short stories. There were a lot of familiar names and that helped, but as I said it wasn‘t a book for me. Sort of recommend….

Started this one tonight. Going to read an essay a night, so this one may take some time. Really enjoyed the first essay. #bookriot

This anthology collection of essays written by a diverse group (writers, models, artists, etc.) feels so powerful and uniting. It‘s a universal experience to wish you could alter yourself so that you would feel more accepted by the world. I wish this book had been around when I was younger! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #arc
