Description :
In this disarming and candid memoir, cultural critic Clarkisha Kent unpacks the
kind of compounded problems you face when you 8217 re a fat, Black, queer
woman in a society obsessed with heteronormativity.There was no easy way
for Kent to navigate personal discovery and self-love. As a dark-skinned, firstgeneration
American facing a myriad of mental health issues and
intergenerational trauma, at times Kent 8217 s body felt like a cosmic
punishment. In the face of body dysmorphia, homophobia, anti-Blackness, and
respectability politics, the pursuit of high self-esteem seemed oxymoronic.Fat
Off, Fat On: A Big Bitch Manifesto is a humorous, at times tragic, memoir that
follows Kent on her journey to realizing that her body is a gift to be grown into,
that sometimes family doesn 8217 t always mean home, and how even illfated
bisexual romances could free her from gender essentialism. Perfect for
listeners of Keah Brown 8217 s The Pretty One, Alida Nugent 8217 s You Don
8217 t Have to Like Me, and Stephanie Yeboah 8217 s Fattily Ever After, Kent
8217 s debut explores her own lived experiences to illuminate how fatphobia
intertwines with other oppressions. It stresses the importance of addressing
the violence scored upon our minds and our bodies, and how we might begin
the difficult but joyful work of setting ourselves free.
