My Love Ana

“Ana” is a divine personification of the illness that leads girls and women onto the path of slow suicide. It can start with an innocent diet and end in tragic outcomes. The story of living with anorexia is told from... the inside of the illness – honestly, without embellishments or omissions. Somewhere in the distance, the difficult path to recovery will flicker, consisting of relapses, hunger, weight losses, more relapses, and total misunderstanding from those around. “My Love Ana” is the second book by Sofia Astashova, forming a dilogy with the novel “Probably the Devil.” The first tells the story of destructive unequal relationships, while the second presents no less destructive experiences of living with an eating disorder – a mysterious illness that is reaching epidemic proportions in our time.
