This issue of the Atlantic includes the M.F.K. Fisher story "Young Hunger". In this wonderful story, Fisher relates
two examples from her own experiences being a revenous teenage. In one instance, she was innocently, but
grossly under-fed by her elderly godparents. In the second instance (which must have been during her time at
the Bishop's School in La Jolla), she secretly binged on a large accumulation of hoarded chocolate bars. pp. 134-5.
