Katriona O’Sullivan’s remarkable memoir Poor saw her become a household name. But her new book, Hungry: A Memoir of my Body is her story told through a different lens, one of sexual abuse, disordered eating, diet culture, and the search for sexual pleasure.
In this interview, recorded at St Luke’s in front of a live audience as part of the Cork World Book Festival, Katriona talks candidly about the abuse she suffered as a child, how she grew apart from her body through repeated abuse and sexualisation, and how she learned to find pleasure in it as an adult. And, how she’d like to become a brand ambassador for Triton – listen to find out why.
