Summary
Todo el mundo quiere saber cómo lo hace Zoe. Su familia, ese chico tan mono con el que se cruza siempre en la pista de hielo y sus compañeros de clase. Quieren saber exactamente cuántos kilos marca la báscula y cuántas calorías consume al día, y si no le preocupa no despertarse a la mañana siguiente. Quieren saber por qué, pero no quieren oír la verdad, porque la verdad no es sensacionalista.
La verdad es que Zoe no se siente suficiente para su familia, ni para ese chico con el que se cruza siempre en la pista de hielo, ni para sus compañeros de clase. Ni siquiera se siente suficiente para la enfermedad.
La verdad es que Zoe se considera más monstruo que chica, sin llegar a ser un monstruo del todo.
La verdad es que nunca es todo o nada.
No hay una verdad absoluta, pero la paz existe, la tranquilidad existe, la recuperación existe.
Y si Zoe aprende a aceptar la ayuda de quienes quieren saber cómo, quienes quieren saber por qué, las terminará conociendo.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A beautiful crossover novel by Andrea Tomé about eating disorders, along the lines of her previous success with Butterfly Heart.
Everyone wants to know how Zoe does it. Her family, that cute guy she always bumps into on the ice rink, and her classmates. They want to know the exact number on the scale and how many calories she eats each day, and if she's not worried about not waking up the next morning. They want to know why, but they don't want to hear the truth, because the truth is not exciting enough.
The truth is that Zoe doesn't feel she’s enough for her family, or for that guy she always crosses paths with on the ice rink, or for her classmates. She doesn't even feel enough for the illness.
The truth is that Zoe considers herself more of a monster than a girl, without being an actual monster at all. The truth is that it's never all or nothing.
There is no absolute truth, but peace, tranquility, and recovery do exist. And Zoe will get to know them all if she learns to accept the help of those who want to know how, those who want to know why.
