In these prose poem sequences, five diff erent tastes are explored, not only with reference to food and drink, but also through their metaphorical use. There are innumerable ways of ’tasting’ and apprehending the world, and these poems canvass a wide range of them while also encouraging readers to consider their own diverse tastes, preferences and experiences.
