"[The author's ambivalence] towards her own creation may stem from her realization that, since her culture associates the excessive female body with lower classes, especially [Black people], loosening the straight jacket of restrained appetites would not so much liberate the upper class white woman, as lower their class status and the privileges that come with it."
