Taste

Taste

Fay Eagle
0/5 ( ratings)
Taste is an anthology of poetry about food.

Food has the power to trigger off remembrance of the past and many of the poets here explore the way taste evokes memories of things now lost to us; people no longer with us, places of childhood experience, native products disappearing in the face of cultural change. The social function of cooking and eating is vitally important and the poets in this anthology write about the pleasure of sharing food with others. This pleasure takes on a romantic connotation when food becomes the language of love and passion.
Sometimes our relationship with food has a religious, almost sacramental element and some of the poems here express the sacred aspect of eating. Our production and consumption of food has political implications too and man of the poets address the ethical issues involved in our choice of food. We hope you savour this anthology and, as one of the poets says, 'Absorb, digest a poem. Make it a part of you!'
