Amy Spalding, star of the BBC’s I Kissed A Girl, joins us this week for a discussion on Melissa Broder’s provocative novel Milk Fed.
We explore how Broder weaves together food, faith and desire through the story of Rachel, a young Jewish woman caught in a cycle of restriction and indulgence.
We also discuss;
✨Mother-daughter dynamics
✨The resurgence of diet culture, and its stronghold on women’s bodies
✨Queer desire
✨Why this book is both literary AND deeply sensual
