VERY COLD PEOPLE by Sarah Manguso
The New York Times featured VERY COLD PEOPLE by Sarah Manguso on a list of Editor’s Choice must-reads. They write: “The memoirist and essayist Manugso’s first novel is about Ruthie, who grows up in a small, perpetually snowy Massachusetts town…[She] writes poignantly of Ruthie’s faith in a maternal love that isn’t really there, and of her dawning comprehension of what might have made it impossible. ‘Manguso also writes poetry, and this is apparent in her fiction,’ our critic Alexandra Jacobs says. ‘Though dealing with life’s ugly, messy truths, her writing is compact and beautiful.’” Hogarth published the novel on February 8, 2022.
