Summary:

"Feast offers abundance and nourishment through language, and reaches toward a place an immigrant might call home. The poems in this collection-many of which revolve around food and its cultural significances-examine the brown body's relationship with nourishment. Poems delve into what it means to be brown in a white world, and how that encourages (or restricts) growth. Feeds its readers by employing lush sonics and imagery unafraid of being Filipino and of being Asian American"-- Provided by publisher.
