For Rachel hunger and the erotic hold the same place for her -- to be fantiasized about but never materialized in reality. Then comes someone who forces her to confront her sexuality and her eating disorder all in the shape of Miriam who reminds her of everything her own Jewish mother would hate. With a dash of Jewish mysticism sprinkled in, you get a great story , about the love and hate for food and sex through Rachel's first person narration of her life and thoughts and feelings and desires.

i did not like this
this relationship isn't love, it's a skinny woman fetishizing a fat woman. it's gross.
also, masterbating in public isn't okay just because you're a woman, it makes you a sex offender.
