The Feast That Starves

By Joanna LaBounty

Book Overview

The Feast That Starves is a collection of poems shaped by hunger in its many forms.

Written in the still aftermath of intimacy, these poems move through memory and the body, returning again and again to what remains. Across the collection, desire and deprivation sit side by side, revealing how what sustains us can also hollow us out, and how meaning accumulates quietly rather than all at once.

LaBounty's poems dwell in absence as much as presence, trusting silence to carry what cannot be said.
