Jaydra Johnson's "Low: Notes on Art & Trash" was selected by acclaimed writer Maggie Nelson as the winner of Fonograf Editions’ inaugural essay collection contest.

Vesto is pleased to be working with The New Press and Liveright this fall season, along with eight other publishers, on a wide-ranging list of books in fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, history, urban studies, and more. We are very glad to reconnect with our friends at Rescue Press and Fonograf Editions, which continue to release important and challenging poetry and prose.

Fordham University Press continues to be a partner, with a focus on publicizing their Empire State Editions, and we are happy to welcome Kent State University Press into the fold. University Press Week returns in November as well, and we will soon announce the programming that we have helped to coordinate for that special event.

Special acknowledgement to our friend and early client Ellen Adler who leaves her role as the publisher of The New Press this month. Her support and guidance was crucial when we began the agency. Thanks to our associates Derek Krissoff, Lauren Carrane, Kathryn Lopez, Nick Milanes, Lani Harms, and Caitlin Solano who have contributed to the efforts on behalf of these publishers and authors, as well as the collaboration of the editors, publicists, and agents working on these books.

The titles can be found with their date of publication on our Linktr.ee.
