Patricia Lockwood: Postmodernism for the Internet Generation
Priestdaddy memoirist, poet, editor and Twitter sensation: Patricia Lockwood has assumed many mantles in her career yet is not defined by any of them. Her debut novel has achieved this same feat. No One is Talking About This is the story of a perennially online woman whose life changes after a family tragedy. Lockwood explores the book’s various identities as internet novel, grief memoir, autofiction, prose poem and 2021 Booker Prize shortlistee with Harry Josephine Giles.
