Happy Fat: Taking Up Space in a World That Wants to Shrink You

I am a fat person and I love my body. I feel lucky to be able to say that it has taken a lot of work and a lot of time. I want to tell you what I have learned and how I got here.

In Happy Fat, comedian Sofie Hagen shares how she removed fatphobic influences from her daily life and found self-acceptance in a world where judgment and discrimination are rife.

From shame and sex to airplane seats, love and getting stuck in public toilets, Sofie provides practical tips for listeners, drawing wisdom from other Fat Liberation champions along the way.

Part memoir, part social commentary, Happy Fat is a funny, angry and impassioned look at how taking up space in a culture that is desperate to reduce you can be radical, emboldening and life-changing.
