Loves You

In Loves You, Sarah Gambito explores the recipe as poetic form and a mode of resistance. Through the inclusion of real recipes that she and her family have cooked from, she brings readers to the table—not only to enjoy the bounty of her poems but, slyly, to consider the ways in which Filipino Americans, and people of color in general, are simultaneously consumed and starved in this country. Gambito’s poems have always been full zest and bite. Now she literally invites us to dig in with this long-awaited new book: Kain Na Tayo! (Let’s eat!).

In Loves You, Sarah Gambito exploreaza reteta ca forma poetica si un mod de rezistenta. Prin includerea unor retete reale din care au gatit ea si familia ei, ea aduce cititorii la masa - nu numai pentru a se bucura de recompensa poeziilor sale, ci, cu viclenie, pentru a lua in considerare modurile in care filipinezii americani si oamenii de culoare in general , sunt consumate si infometate simultan in aceasta tara.
