Eating the Sun grows lushly from a May-December love affair between a twenty-something patient and her surgeon and blossoms sensuously into a marriage of shared passions. In this cross-genre collection, Ikins cultivates multiple gardens and harvests delicate, yearning verse, recipes for fruits and vegetables sun-coaxed from the earth, and luminous stories of her star-crossed union with Phillip, thirty years her senior and the love of her life. We fall head over heels for the couple, the homes in which they nest, the patches of soil they till, and the meals they prepare, following their relationship throughout their seasons of love. Embracing both joy and heartache, despair and delight, Eating the Sun is ripe and intoxicating. Linda Lowen, Contributor, The Writer Magazine and book reviewer for a leading trade publication
