Small amount of shelf wear on the paper cover otherwise never read or opened. In this searing, unflinching, honest book, Portia de Rossi captures the complex emotional truth of what it is like when food, weight, and body image, take priority over every other human impulse or action, Portia shines a bright light on a dark subject, a crucial book, for those who might sometimes feel at war with themselves, or their bodies. From her lowest point, Portia began the painful climb back to the life of health and honesty, falling in love with, and eventually marrying Ellen DeGeneres, and emerging as an outspoken and articulate advocate for gay rights and women’s health issues. Unbearable Lightness is a story that inspires hope and nourishes the spirit.
