Guardian's Best Fiction of the Year
'One of the most original and exciting writers working in English today' - Jhumpa Lahiri
Once home to the country's most illustrious families, Waitsfield, Massachusetts, is now an unforgiving place awash with secrets. Forged in this frigid landscape, Ruthie learns how the town's prim facade conceals a deeper, darker history and how silence often masks a legacy of harm - from the violence that runs down the family line to the horrors endured by her high school friends.
In Very Cold People Sarah Manguso reveals the suffocating constraints of growing up in a very old, and very cold, small town. Here lies a vital confrontation with an all-American whiteness where the ice of emotional restraint meets the embers of smouldering rage . . .
'Chilling . . . deeply impressive' - Guardian
'A masterclass in unease' - The Observer
Longlisted for the Wingate Prize 2023
