Description
Bloomsbury presents Milk Fed by Melissa Broder, read by Melissa Broder.
A scathingly funny, wildly erotic and fiercely imaginative story about food, sex and God from the Women's Prize longlisted author of The Pisces
A Stylist, Independent, The Week and Red Highlight for 2021
Rachel is 24, a lapsed Jew who has made calorie restriction her religion. By day, she maintains an illusion of control by way of obsessive food rituals. At night, she pedals nowhere on the elliptical machine.
Then Rachel meets Miriam, a young Orthodox-Jewish woman intent upon feeding her. Rachel is suddenly and powerfully entranced by Miriam - by her sundaes and her body, her faith and her family - and as the two grow closer, Rachel embarks on a journey marked by mirrors, mysticism, mothers, milk and honey.
Pairing superlative emotional insight with unabashed vivid fantasy, Melissa Broder tells a tale of appetites: of physical hunger, of sexual desire, of spiritual longing. Milk Fed is a tender and riotously funny meditation on love, certitude and the question of what we are all being fed, from one of our major writers on the psyche - both sacred and profane.
