Choose yourself. Reclaim your body. Become whole.The deeply personal and uniquely empowering call to arms from author, model and activist, Charli Howard. 'Powerful and incredibly validating' Lily Reinhart'Extraordinary' Glamour 'Fierce and tender' Yrsa Daley-Ward 'Urgent and timely' Emma Louise-BoyntonIn this urgent and powerful series of essays, author and activist Charli Howard explores how society has objectified the female body throughout time. Through analysing her own body, one piece at a time, Charli charts the impact of long-term sexual objectification and misogyny on the female body, and shows how to reclaim it for yourself and, eventually, truly love it as your own. Through personal reflection and social analysis, she reminds us why we must give ourselves grace when assessing our own bodies, as we are so often viewing them through a lens corrupted long before we were born. Flesh is an unmissable exploration of what it means to be a woman in the twenty-first century.

'Hilarious and a timely look at women and our bodies' Juno Dawson'Honest, rebellious and completely refreshing' Fearne CottonCharli Howard grew up thinking that she wasn't good enough. She wasn't pretty enough. She wasn't rich enough. She wasn't thin enough. Fitting in wasn't exactly easy. Looking at the smiling girls in magazines, she came to the obvious conclusion: to be accepted, she has to be 'perfect'. She had to be a model.But what magazines don't tell you is that you can't Photoshop your problems away (and they can Photoshop a lot). So, when you're the thinnest you've ever been, your agency fires you, and you're battling anxiety and an eating disorder to boot, how do you get through it? You get angry, go viral and discover that, after all that, you're not alone. At least that's what Charli did.
