Description
The Art of Starving by Sam J. Miller is a haunting and powerful novel about a young boy's desperate quest for answers. Matt's life is marked by hunger, not just for food, but for connection and understanding. When his sister Maya disappears, Matt is driven to uncover the truth, using his increasingly unsettling abilities to infiltrate the life of the boy who bullied her.
As Matt navigates the complexities of his own hunger and the secrets it reveals, he must confront the darker aspects of his own nature and the world around him. A darkly funny and moving story, The Art of Starving explores themes of body image, addiction, friendship, and love, making it a resonant read for anyone who has ever craved the power of self-acceptance.
