Abzurdah is a 2006 autobiographical book by Argentine author Cielo Latini. It was adapted to an eponymous film in 2015.
The book was written as an autobiography of Cielo Latini, who was a teenager at the time. Born in La Plata, she started and dropped studies of Journalism. She fell in love with a man, and developed anorexia and bulimia in her attempts to improve her physical image. She was the webmaster of a page that encouraged girls to stop eating. She attempted to commit suicide when her boyfriend left her, but was stopped, and started a treatment to be cured of her bulimia and anorexia. She told her story at Conflictos en red, and got a new boyfriend. This gave her the idea to write a book about her eating disorders, her rocky relation with her old boyfriend, and her attempted suicide.[1]
