The Bookcase is pleased to welcome Jane McClaren to our store on Wednesday, October 6 at 7:00 in the evening.
Ms. McClaren will be here to discuss and sign copies of her book Honest Eating.
Jane McClaren's story begins as one of failure, depression, and up-and-down weight problems due to emotionally-driven overeating. But in 1975, after an obese friend asked her to join him at a health program in Texas, McClaren's life path took a merciful turn for the better. She jumped at the chance to lose weight, vowing to do it even if it kills me! With steely determination, she launched into a 35-year study of food and health. Always yearning to understand why a young, beautiful, funny, intelligent woman had felt suicidal, she began working with a therapy group that brought her awareness of possible causes and also some peace of mind. In Honest Eating, McClaren shares what enabled her to merge her love of food with a healthy attitude and body. She shares hard-won insights about good foods that tell the truth and bad foods that lie. She celebrates simple, delicious food and artistry in the kitchen. Most importantly, McClaren teaches us that we can be healthy and still maintain a positive - even lusty - relationship with food.
