Summary | In 'Bite by Bite', poet and essayist Aimee Nezhukumatathil explores the way food and drink evoke our associations and remembrances - a subtext or layering, a flavour tinged with joy, shame, exuberance, grief, desire, or nostalgia. From shave ice to lumpia, mangoes to pecans, rambutan to vanilla, she investigates how food marks our experiences and identities, the boundaries between heritage and memory, and the ethics and environmental pressures around gathering and consuming food. |
