Excellent- More about Museum of Ice Cream
Jenna Clake's Museum of Ice Cream is a collection of poems that explore how food can connect and divide, feel isolating and terrifying, and investigate how to reveal and conceal secrets, be intimate, and navigate something that should be natural but feels sickly, sour, and wrong.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 64 pages
Publication date: 22 April 2021
Publisher: Bloodaxe Books Ltd
Jenna Clake's Museum of Ice Cream is a captivating blend of simulation, introspection, and an earnest attempt to connect with others. Through her intricate poems, she delves into the profound examination of objects, scenes, and flavors, exploring the intricate ways in which food can both unite and divide individuals. From the public and private jars of peanut butter to the solitary tray of lemons and the unraveling chocolate bar wrappers, Clake's collection invites us to contemplate the complexities of human connections and the paradoxes of isolation and fear.
In her exploration of these themes, Clake turns to various sources, including television, childhood films, and social media accounts. Through these mediums, she investigates the art of revealing and concealing, the nuances of intimacy, and the challenges of navigating what should be a natural but often unsettling experience. The Museum of Ice Cream serves as Clake's second collection, following her debut Fortune Cookie (2017), which received critical acclaim and numerous awards. The book was recognized with the Eric Gregory Award and the Melita Hume Poetry Prize, and it was also shortlisted for the Somerset Maugham Award.
Through her poetic prowess and thoughtful exploration, Jenna Clake's Museum of Ice Cream offers a profound and thought-provoking journey into the complexities of human connection, isolation, and the bittersweet pleasures of food.
