• Praise for The Latest Winter:
o ‘Nelson’s poems move fast, think on their feet, hit and run with equal parts of humor; glamor and horror. In every way, she is a thoroughly original voice for our time.’ – Elaine Equi
• Praise for The Argonauts:
o ‘Thinking and feeling are, for Nelson, mutually necessary processes; the result is an exceptional portrait both of a romantic partnership and of the collaboration between Nelson’s mind and heart.’ New Yorker
o ‘Maggie Nelson slays entrenched notions of gender, marriage, and sexuality with lyricism, intellectual brass, and soul-ringing honesty.’ Vanity Fair
o ‘The Argonauts rewards us with an expansive way of considering identity, caretaking, and freedom... Maybe it will change the way we think and speak about others and ourselves?’ - Emma Watson
o ‘[I] absolutely love this book.’ - Jenny Turner, London Review of Books
o ‘This book is a life-changer’ - Carrie Brownstein, The New York Times
o ‘This is a book that belongs on the shelves of anyone who desires, especially if what they desire is nothing short of freedom itself.’ Guardian
