Sarah Manguso’s ONGOINGNESS is one of Vogue’s “22 Spring Books We Can’t Wait To Read,” and Leslie Jamison reviewed the book in The Atlantic, saying, “with a kind of anti-prolix purity, she evokes the diary in lean abstractions and polished reflections that elide or condense the experiences that shaped them. Her prose feels twice distilled; it’s whiskey rather than beer, writing about writing about life.” Graywolf published the book on March 3, 2015.
Maggie Nelson’s THE ARGONAUTS received a starred review in Publishers Weekly, which said, “In a fast-shifting terrain of ‘homonormativity,’ Nelson…plows ahead with a disarmingly blushing work about trying to simultaneously embrace her identity, her marriage with nomadic transgender filmmaker Harry, and motherhood. Nelson writes in fine, fragmented exhalations, inserting quotes from numerous theorists as she goes. Her narrative is an honest, joyous affirmation of one happily unconventional family finding itself.”

Elliot Ackerman's GREEN ON BLUE is an Amazon celebrity pick of 2014 National Book Award Winner Phil Klay, author of Redeployment. Says Klay, “A decorated Marine veteran who served five tours overseas, Ackerman undoubtedly could have written a compelling memoir or autobiographical novel.

Sarah Manguso’s ONGOINGNESS is a PW Pick of the Week, a Flavorwire “Ten Must-Read Books,” and was reviewed by The Millions, The AV Club, and NPR, which called it “her third exquisitely honed memoir” and said “Written in spare, elliptical bursts of hard-won insights, this slim meditation invites quoting and mulling… Manguso's insights resonate beyond her personal situation…The unexamined life? No chance of that with Manguso.” Graywolf published the book on March 3, 2015.

As The Washington Post notes, “Like so much of the best nonfiction, “The China Collectors” is as entertaining as it is eye-opening. After reading it, you’ll never visit an Asian art exhibit again without shuddering at how much Sturm und Drang went into the creation of such peacefulness and serenity.”
