Chana Porter is a brilliant engineer of speculative societies and vivid far-flung realms, but she is also an author who reminds us what matters most in our real lives: the urgency of living our highest truth. "The Thick and the Lean flips our known world inside out and, in doing so, exposes familiar seams of subjugation-from purity culture to capitalist exploitation. This book is wildly new and deliciously satisfying, and Porter is one of our moment's most original seers." -Alexandra Kleeman, author of You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine and Something New Under the Sun "Decadent and richly imagined, The Thick and the Lean topples expectations and skillfully re-maps vice and virtue, indulgence and shame as we know them. This novel is a feast of ideas I didn’t want to end." -Allegra Hyde, author of Eleutheria
