Bargen calls The Feast a prose poem sequence, meaning work that has the energy, rhythm, and imagery of poetry, yet at the same time the narrative thread and characters of a novella. In The Feast, the retelling of the biblical Jonah swallowed by a great fish becomes a major underlying organizing principle for the book. Writer Debra Di Blasi calls The Feast, "a work of subversive genius, particularly relevant to today’s political and cultural climate." Poet Christopher Buckley says, "With wit and gravity, irony and great pathos, Chariots and Edsels, Omaha Beach and Agincourt, these prose poems keenly assess the fable of the world and bring us all a light–-practical, inventive-–to redeem our suffering and struggle. These poems off the reader a classic and immediate knowledge of ourselves, which is what we hope for in our best poetry." The Feast also includes images by Mike Sleadd.
