| | | | | BOOKS | | The 35 Best New Books Of Fall 2023 | A handful of this season’s releases explore image-making, public perception, and the inevitable haziness of truth. Marisa Meltzer’s latest nonfiction book, Glossy, goes deep into Glossier’s creation and expansion by profiling its founder, the elusive cool girl Emily Weiss.

And for distinctly untrippy, but stunning realistic portrayals of family grief, both Susie Boyt’s Loved and Missed and Una Mannion’s Tell Me What I Am show the effect of loss across generations.
