Snacks for the Love Hungry is both deadpan funny and richly detailed. These poems juxtapose nostalgia for a Midwestern youth with gratitude for getting out, existential anxieties of dating as a feminist in the post-me too era and of being a global tourist in the dregs of late stage capitalism with the thrill of new intimacy and the richness of connections made across borders, and the hunger for validation with the satiety of owning one's owns experience, with all its requisite losses and loves. Witty, relatable, surprising, and as subversively satisfying as a midnight snack.
