"Michael P. Charlton's novel Late Winter is so gritty that he could eat Charles Bukowski for breakfast. It is raw, it is real and it is utterly decadent. Not for the faint of heart. I highly recommend it."
— JOHN DAVID EBERT, CULTURAL CRITIC

"Late Winter is an unusually strong literary debut; an artistic statement that has the reader turning the page as his characters plummet ever deeper into hell. Michael P. Charlton has a skill for writing rich dialogue, likeable characters and memorable conflicts, the relationships enriched by violence and tenderness."
— JAMES ANDERS BANKS, BOOKER PRIZE LISTED AWARD-WINNING NOVELIST

Late Winter will grab you by the throat and drag you into the totalitarian darkness. A darkness which very few writers are willing to face. Michael P. Charlton's gutsy novel is full to the brim with sinister satire, dark comedy and tyrannical mayhem. Not for the faint of heart. This is our future, so prepare yourself early.
