The severe food restricting that left her thin and sick when she was 15 and 25 had returned. This time, she was determined to understand the causes of her malady and how she could heal from a condition that is caused by a tangle of genetic, biological, familial, psychological, cultural, and spiritual factors. This compelling memoir, at once a food and illness narrative, explores the forces that cause eating disorders and disordered eating, including the link between those conditions in women, middle-aged and older, and the fear of aging and ageism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Winner of the 2017 Nebraska Book Award for Memoir \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 2017 Choice Outstanding Academic Title\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLisa Knopp, \u003c\/b\u003eauthor of \u003ci\u003eBread: A Memoir of Hunger\u003c\/i\u003e, is also the author of five collections of essays, each of which explores the concepts of place, home, nature, and spirituality. \u003ci\u003eWhat the River Carries: Encounters with the Mississippi, Missouri, and Platte \u003c\/i\u003ewas the winner of the 2013 Nebraska Book Award in the nonfiction\/essay category and tied for second place in the 2013 ALSE (Association for the Study of Literature and the Environment) book awards for environmental creative nonfiction. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Knopp's essays have appeared in numerous literary publications including \u003ci\u003eMissouri Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMichigan Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eIowa Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGettysburg Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNorthwest Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCream City Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBrevity: A Journal of Concise Literary Nonfiction\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eConnecticut Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eShenandoah\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCreative Nonfiction\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePrairie Schooner\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eIowa Review\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eGeorgia Review\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Knopp is a Professor of English at the University of Nebraska-Omaha, where she teaches courses in creative nonfiction.
