stranger here (memoir)


Honest, brave and sparklingly funny, Larsen’s memoir reminds us that one size doesn’t–and shouldn’t–fit all. —PEOPLE Magazine

An arresting memoir about the author’s experience with weight-loss surgery. —KIRKUS

Stranger Here is the brutally honest, surprisingly hilarious story of one woman’s journey from one extreme of the weight spectrum to the other, and of the unexpected emotional chaos it created. Insightful and unsparing in her self-examination, Larsen depicts the exhilarating highs and devastating lows she experienced as a result of her weight loss—the incredible joy of finally beginning to look like the image of herself she’s always carried inside her head, and the crushing pain and confusion of feeling like a stranger in her own body after losing the weight that has always defined her.
