Big Sexy Lunch

By Roxy Dunn

Big Sexy Lunch is an irreverent, entertaining account of millennial philosophy and relationships. Roxy Dunn's observational wit and reflective self-doubt muse on sex, singledom, and falling in and out of love. There's a directness and an honesty to these poems which humorously scrutinises the conflicts and contradictions of being attached to someone and our ongoing appetite for fulfilment.
