Svetlana Pavlova is a writer, a resident of the Peredelkino House of Creativity, a graduate of the Creative Writing School and WLAG, as well as of the Master's program "Literary Mastery" at the National Research University Higher School of Economics.
The heroine of the novel "Hunger" Lena is thirty years old. She has an understandable established life: career, mortgage, parties, friends. And also - bulimia: for more than ten years she sits on a diet, breaks down, again starves - and so on in a circle. One day Lena meets a man suffering from kleptomania. So begins the story of mutual healing from a disease that supposedly does not exist, which can not be treated and about which it is shameful to talk in society. "Hunger" is a novel about how difficult it is to fight against the standards of beauty and ideal body; how the idea of self-love from a platitude and truism turns into a rule of life.
