Feathertale is pleased to announce the official launch of EAT IT, a tasty collection of new writing from women about food — all its finger-lickin’ glory and tangy cultural complications.
EAT IT is both a special issue of The Feathertale Review and a stand-alone book. It’s an irreverent, clever and touching anthology that hinges on the carnal. It’s a tasting menu of unique, genre-spanning stories that explore what it means to be a woman who’s hungry for more.
What’s the best way to poison one’s husband? What happens when the body itself becomes a source of food? Can a potato be political? EAT IT’s contributors explore these questions and more with equal parts humour and gravitas, revealing that for many women food is about love but also power, biology, social obligation, experimentation, nourishment, pain and pleasure.
This will be an event to remember, presented by Feathertale and This is Not a Reading Series, co-hosted by EAT IT editors Brianna Goldberg and Nicole Baute.
