We hope you’re hungry. In this Episode Lottie and Marta prepare a poetic meal for you, with an appetiser of metaphors and side salad of groceries. Marta brought along Allen Ginsberg’s “A Supermarket in California”, a supermarket trip which questions consumerism and philosophises the nuclear family. Lottie offered us Li-Young Lee’s “Persimmons”, an exploration of identity and cultural assimilation through bright Chinese fruit and childlike innocence. Literally, food for thought.
