It includes painful searches for oneself and one’s environment, daily romantic problems, relationships with family, and in general the following themes: Who have you become or who can you become depending on whether you find the answers to all the questions this book offers you? said Lisa Yankovskaya, who voiced the main character of the book.

“This text is written from personal experience of many years of dieting, counting calories, and hating the thought of oneself. And although the hero’s life did not at all copy mine, often radically different, and even the subtype of his disease differed from mine, I knew very well what I was writing about. In order not to sound decadent, I will say that the book is written not only about the experience of illness, but also about the experience of recovery, the search and (finding!) beauty within oneself,” Pavlova shared.
