—Susan Isaacs “THE DIETER is about gaining and losing pounds, husbands, habits and friends. It is a delightful novel, intelligent, witty, and very moving.” --New York Times “The Dieter reads on one level as glib entertainment…. But beneath the whipped cream is a nicely paced story with moments that are both amusing and touching. Ms. Sussman clearly has something to say about the flimsy comfort of material possessions when they are not anchored by deeper values. She also serves up a dollop of thoughtful moralizing about body weight, self-image, and self-esteem. Her understanding of the plight of the compulsive eater and dieter, and of the various weight-loss programs, rings true….”
—Publishers Weekly “Sussman’s clever, lighthearted novel chronicles Barbara Avers’s increasing avoirdupois... Barbara is also hellbent on a serious course of dieting…an odyssey that the author captures brilliantly and with uncanny insight.”
—The Atlanta Journal-Constitution “An excellent novel for and about women…written with both wit and grit…. Anyone who has ever tried to lose weight will identify with Barbara and cheer her on in her Battle of the Bulge…Barbara comes to grips with her life in a most satisfying denouement…. And from Susan Sussman, I hope for more novels about contemporary women…”
