A review by witchhenrietta
Notes from a Small Island by Bill Bryson
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.
This book is riddled with ableism, racism and fatphobia. Page 96 did it for me when he finished a whole paragraph about fat people (I’m using this word as a descriptor, he clearly uses it as an insult) with “the fat pig“. Absolutely disgusting how many people may have read this and felt bad about themselves as a result.
Graphic: Ableism and Fatphobia
Minor: Racial slurs and Racism
