Fat Girl Forms

More about the book

Written entirely in traditional and invented forms, Stephanie Rogers’ Fat Girl Forms explores how it feels to move one’s body in a world not built to hold it. She examines the way society humiliates fat women, especially those who don’t conform to conventional standards of beauty. Brash, sassy, and in your face, this second full-length collection depicts one fat woman's challenge to a culture that constantly tells them that they are unwanted, unloved, unworthy, all of this done in verse forms full of panache and élan.
