'Milk Fed' Author Melissa Broder on Hunger, Humor, and Writing by Dictation

Milk Fed
, grapples with dissatisfaction. It’s a theme that runs through her catalogue more widely, be it her droll-slash-existentially-queasy Twitter handle, So Sad Today, or her celebrated novel
The Pisces. This ache for more of everything—more flavor! more passion! more approval! more comfort!—is ultimately impossible to quench, and Broder examines how to live with that infuriating disappointment.
Her latest protagonist, Rachel, lurches between visceral impulses and toxic narratives. She’s been shamed her whole life by her mother and developed disordered eating habits that make her “high on sacrifice.” Nothing adequately compensates: Her job at a Hollywood talent agency feels meaningless and she considers her therapist dubiously qualified at best (“How good could she be if she was willing to deal with Blue Shield?”). When Rachel does open-mic nights, her “alt JAP” persona, clad in Saks Off Fifth, is an obvious outlier amongst the “Moon Juice, organic lip tint, and cocaine” set. Everything in Rachel’s life feels disposable and insufficient until she encounters Miriam, a “kosher coquette” who serves frozen yogurt. Miriam’s presence “giv[es] life to my dead parts,” as Rachel put it, and this hit of intimacy spurs her to make other changes.

Melissa Broder's delectable new "Milk Fed," like "The Pisces," her 2011 debut about a merman, contains deliciously steamy sex scenes. In "Milk Fed," those scenes get tough competition from lusciously over-the-top food scenes, involving protagonist Rachel devouring everything from convenience-store nachos (polishing them off while still in line) to a frozen-yogurt concoction called "The Peppermint Plotz" to a Shabbos meal of long-simmered cholent.
Twenty-four-year-old Rachel, who works at a Hollywood talent agency, wasn't always this way. Her mother, obsessed with thinness, was oblivious to that obsession's effects on her daughter. As a teenager, when Rachel confesses that she thinks she has an eating disorder, her mother responds: "Anorexics are much skinnier than you." Adult Rachel measures out her days in coffee spoons filled with Splenda and yearns for lunchtime salads packed with as much no-calorie lettuce as she can persuade the Subway clerk to add. As a sop to her sad diet, she indulges in mommy-centric sexual fantasies about an older female colleague.

Claire Foy starring in The Pisces movie, based on Melissa Broder's novel

According to Deadline, Foy will play Lucy, a PhD student who, after breaking up with her boyfriend, suffers from a bad case of writer's block and develops a chummy and, yes, erotic obsession with a merman, the mythological half-male, half fish creature of legend.
Pisces, of course, is the twelfth astrological sign in the Zodiac, a water sign whose symbol is the fish. And in the case of
The Pisces, the object of Lucy's infatuation is a human male from the waist up and the tuna type from the waist down, whom she sees swimming one night in the sea. But this isn't merely a gender reversal take on
