Love Can't Feed You (2024)
Cherry Lou Sy
"Love Can't Feed You is a searing, searching, soulful novel of the utmost humanity. An intoxicating examination of desire and shame, at turns sublimely tender and incandescent with rage, it asks who deserves to live with dignity in an America divided by class, color, and capitalism. I devoured this book."
