In Food for the Winter,Geraldine Connolly recovers the lost world
of childhood in the years ofsmall-town America following World War
II. The prevailing imagery is that offire, the fire of bombing
recollected, the fire of Roman Catholicism, of riflesand steel
mills, candles and cigarettes, fires both intellectual and
physical,fires of emotion and spirit. Connolly's collection fixes
the past and itslosses in place then moves from girlhood themes
into the emergence of womanhoodand its passions. The book's real
subject is love and the rich and variedpossibilities of human
relationships. The rites of passages become more thanthose of an
individual life, achieving an identity that both records
aparticular moment in time yet transcends a particular human body
and names usall as suffers of experience and enjoyers of
perceptions.
