A sharply intelligent & intimate debut novel about a secret society of hungry young women who meet after dark & feast to reclaim their appetites—and their physical spaces—that posits the question: if you feed a starving woman, what will she grow into? 
     Roberta spends her life trying not to take up space. At almost thirty, she is adrift & alienated from life. Stuck in a mindless job & reluctant to pursue her passion for food, she suppresses her appetite & recedes to the corners of rooms. But when she meets Stevie, a spirited & effervescent artist, their intense friendship sparks a change in Roberta, a shift in her desire for more. 
     Together, they invent the Supper Club, a transgressive & joyous collective of women who gather to celebrate, rather than admonish, their hungers. They gather after dark & feast until they are sick; they break into private buildings & leave carnage in their wake; they embrace their changing bodies; they stop apologizing. For these women, each extraordinary yet unfulfilled, the club is a way to explore, discover, & push the boundaries of the space they take up in the world. 
     Yet as the club expands, growing in both size & rebellion, Roberta is forced to reconcile herself to the desire & vulnerabilities of the body–& the past she has worked so hard to repress. Devastatingly perceptive & savagely funny, Supper Club is an essential coming-of-age story for our times.
