Books containing stories by Emily Gould
Emily Gould recommends
Liars (2024)
Sarah Manguso
"From the first page I was spellbound. This book deserves to be read and reread again to fully absorb its primal power and truth."
Let's Not Do That Again (2022)
Grant Ginder
"Let's Not Do That Again keeps readers flipping pages compulsively while pushing exciting boundaries. Grant Ginder is not afraid to ask what it means to fight for what's right--for the country you serve, the world at large, and the flawed and impossibly complicated people you are bound to love."
The Very Nice Box (2021)
Laura Blackett and Eve Gleichman
"This sharp page-turner is as well-constructed and pleasing as the titular Box, with a heroine whose affecting quirks lend heart and consequence to the headlong plot."
