Beautiful Stranger
Feb. 10th, 2007 09:52 pmI failed to get Beautiful Stranger in the mail in time for the retreat, which is probably just as well, since I would have gobbled it down on the plane and ended up leaving it in Mexico.
miyyu posted about it a while ago and I had promised to share my thoughts when I read it... so here they are. (You can read
miyyu's very good description of the book, about a young woman obsessed with beauty and cosmetic surgery, on her post.) I've been diagnosed with OCD and I've had minor cosmetic surgery (totally unrelated things for me, as far as I know) so I guess she thought I'd have some perspective or something.
( My thoughts on the book, cosmetic surgery, transhumanism, responsibility and armpit hair... )
