What Are You Looking At?: The First Fat Fiction Anthology
Edited by Donna Jarrell and Ira Sukrungruang
Harvest/Harcourt, 274 pages, $14 paper
The best-seller list may be bursting with diet books, but none reflects what the editors of this collection call “the fat experience.” These 30 terrific short stories–by such authors as Tobias Wolff and Andre Dubus, as well as local writers Sharon Solwitz and S.L. Wisenberg–explore the emotional life of those who define themselves by how much they weigh.
