The obese female body has often been portrayed as the other to the slender body. However this process of othering or viewing as different has created a repressive discourse where excess has increasingly come to be studied as a physical abnormality or a signifier of a personality defect in contemporary Western society. This book engages with the multifarious re-imaginings of the excessive embodiment in contemporary women s writing drawing specifically on the construction of this form of embodiment in the works of Fay Weldon Jeanette Winterson Margaret Atwood Claude Tardat and Judith Moore whose texts offer a distinct literary response to the rigidly homogeneous and limiting representations of fatness while prompting heterogeneous approaches to reading the excessive female embodiment.
