Re: Win all the books on our books page - On Beauty by Zadie Smith

The Invisible Girl by Peter Barham

This book is incredible. The memoirs of Peter Barham about his beautiful daughter and her battle with anorexia. She had a very successful, though short, life. She inspired others, she could be bitingly sharp and always hilariously witty and clever. This book made me want to laugh and cry. I wanted to know her. I felt I did know her. The complications of her relationships with her parents, her internal struggle, her ambition and her successes are revealed in a touching narration by her father, with emails and insights from her peers after her death. Superb.
