Comfort Food
Comfort Food | Ellen van Neerven
3 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
Let me tell you with my skin Under the earth we will find Whole lot. It's all of those things. In this fresh and distinctive collection, Comfort Food offers a close inward focus and an exquisite sensitivity which bridge van Neerven's Indigenous and non-Indigenous heritage. The melding of cultural experiences offers access to a unique and vibrant bicultural experience. The textures and sensuality of the poems' imagery create a portrait of a young woman's life and her exploration of body and mind. A stunning poetry debut from an immensely talented author.

Wanted to read more from First Nations authors, especially from Yugambeh region, and started with this. I felt myself wishing it was longer when I finished it, so looking forward to reading more of her stuff.

First book purchase of 2018 (not counting a couple of gifts for friends who had babies). I‘ve been meaning to read Ellen Van Neerven for at least a year, and finally picked up a copy of her poetry collection Comfort Food.
