In One Body, Catherine Simpson looks back on her life so far and interrogates how her experiences have shaped her relationship with her body. From being routinely catcalled, objectified and dismissed from a young age, to experiencing severe morning sickness, post-natal depression and early menopause, she has lived with all manner of physical and psychological pains that come with womanhood.

On a cold December day in 2013 Catherine Simpson received the phone call she had feared for years. Her little sister Tricia had been found dead in the farmhouse where she, Catherine and their sister Elizabeth were born - and where their family had lived for generations. Tricia was 46 and had been stalked by depression all her life. Yet mental illness was a taboo subject within the family, and although love was never lacking, there was a silence at its heart. After Tricia died, Catherine found she had kept a lifetime of diaries.
