Comfort Food

Book Description:

I also saw those spirit dogs and poetry travelled with me like rivers I didn't ever eat alone. 

Following on from the success of her award-winning fiction debut, Heat and Light, Ellen van Neerven announces herself as a talented poet with this intoxicating collection.

Moving between places and cultures, Comfort Food explores identity, sovereignty and the restless quest for love.

Using food as her inspiration, van Neerven offers a cross-cultural vision of the exotic and the familiar.

This sensuous volume sets a new benchmark in contemporary Australian poetry.
