About the bookValerie Nies' debut full-length collection of poetry Snacks for the Love Hungry is both deadpan funny and richly detailed. These poems juxtapose nostalgia for a Midwestern youth with gratitude for getting out, existential anxieties of dating as a feminist in the post-me too era and of being a global tourist in the dregs of late stage capitalism with the thrill of new intimacy and the richness of connections made across borders, and the hunger for validation with the satiety of owning one's owns experience, with all its requisite losses and loves. Witty, relatable, surprising, and as subversively satisfying as a midnight snack.About the authorValerie Nies is a comedian, writer and gluten enthusiast. Her work has been featured in Rattle, McSweeney's, Reductress, and Drunk Monkeys, among others. Her chapbook Imaginary Frenemies was published in 2021, and Snacks for the Love Hungry is her first full-length collection.
