To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Her supervisor emailed back right away and thanked me for my concern, but explained there was nothing they could do since Amy had been battling with anorexia for many years and was refusing treatment. Amy’s parents didn’t get back to me until later. Amy’s story troubled me, on various levels. Although I did find her account utterly heart-wrenching (and there is no doubt that she really was and still is suffering), I couldn’t help but feel that there was also a passive-aggressive impulse that was... driving her to starve herself to death. Anorexia is one of those conditions that is masochistic only on the surface. After all, while Amy is getting some (admittedly very sad and twisted) form of pleasure from her physical vanishing act, she is forcing those who love her to watch helplessly from the sidelines. Most acts of self-destruction are ultimately fuelled by reproach. You observed something similar once about Lailah: sometimes, you told me, you could catch fleeting glimpses of the furious hatred behind your wife’s limp and lifeless facade – and it made your blood freeze.
