Sinopse
In FAT: The Other "F" Word, Quincy Collins lives in two vastly different worlds; one where he's a very heavy and awkward freshman at Beverly Hills High School, the other where he's a Hollywood character actor in commercials and indie films playing the comic relief or the despicable bully. Guess which world he likes better?
At the start of this novel, Quincy gets his big break with a major role as "The Fat Brother" in a hot new network sitcom, only to find that wanting and having are two very different things. First, "size discrimination activists'' challenge the integrity of the character he's portraying. Then his health struggles begin to undermine both his character on the show, and his self-assigned brand as "The Fat Kid Actor". His dream gig becomes a nightmare, and he starts to question the role he's playing on TV, as well as in real life.
FAT: The Other "F" Word shows a unique person in a unique setting. It explores Hollywood, adolescence, and our culture's attitudes toward different sized people. Quincy narrates the story with discovery, irony, pain, and compassion as he learns that he can't base his identity on the size of his body.
