Food critic Dorothy Daniels loves what she does. Discerning, meticulous, & very, very smart, Dorothy's clear mastery of the culinary arts make it likely that she could, on any given night, whip up a more inspired dish than any one of the chefs she writes about. Dorothy loves sex as much as she loves food, & while she has struggled to find a long-term partner that can keep up with her, she makes the best of her single life, frequently traveling from Manhattan to Italy for a taste of both.
But there is something within Dorothy that's different from everyone else, & having suppressed it long enough, she starts to embrace what makes Dorothy uniquely, terrifyingly herself. Dorothy has always had a voracious – & adventurous – appetite. Recounting her life from a seemingly idyllic farm-to-table childhood, the heights of her career, to the moment she plunges an ice pick into a man's neck on Fire Island, Dorothy Daniels show us what happens when a woman finally embraces her superiority.
A satire of early foodieism, a critique of how gender is defined, & a showcase of virtuoso storytelling, Chelsea G. Summers' A Certain Hunger introduces us to the food world's most charming psychopath & an exciting new voice in fiction.

The flowery language together with its decadent ambiance and the mode of storytelling instantly reminds me of ‘my year of rest and relaxation’.

Do we really have to set the gender boundaries? In this case, yes. The buttocks and the tongues don’t fall into any stereotype, but when you see a six feet tall woman eats a man out, that clearly asse... Do we really have to set the gender boundaries? In this case, yes. The buttocks and the tongues don’t fall into any stereotype, but when you see a six feet tall woman eats a man out, that clearly asserts something. A food critic, a gluttonous beast, an inspiring rebel. (展开)
