The Los Angeles Times named VERY COLD PEOPLE by Sarah Manguso one of the best books of 2022: "This unflinching first novel by poet and critic Manguso is a coming-of-age story set in a New England as icy as the title suggests. Her rendering of violence, abuse and secrecy within families and communities is clear-eyed and almost uncomfortably lyrical — the beauty of her writing makes the tragedies she describes feel all the more wrenching." Hogarth published VERY COLD PEOPLE on February 8, 2022.
