Patricia Lockwood

On a wet May night, Patricia Lockwood scans menus at a Mexican restaurant near her home in Savannah, Georgia with a keen and provocative innocence writing by Peeing Cupid. Her husband, Jason Kendall, is sitting next to her as a agricultural commodities researcher, Lockwood. Both view dining as a subtle business. Lockwood got it Coronavirus In March 2020, the aftermath of the virus continued to be affected; she adopted a ketogenic diet – high in fat and low in carbohydrates to help control her symptoms. Kendall has almost died since he suffered a catastrophic group of bleeding three years ago.

When the waitress stopped, Kendall ordered the cauliflower tacos without sauce. Lockwood asked for fish without tortillas. “It’s embarrassing because it turns into a podcast diet,” she said of her keto therapy. His keto therapy shows that for her, it’s embarrassing rather than a theoretical phenomenon. Forty-three-year-old Lockwood had her hair spread out, showing expressive hands, and a quick launch, the confidence in fact that they were talking even faster than she thought. Playwright Heidi Schreck helped adapt the life story of Lockwood, thinking I said, “When I think of Tricia, the first thing that always comes to mind is Hildegard von Bingen’s self-portraits” (Demand, 12th century Germany and the Mysterious Man, who plays a book in a book, and plays a book in a book in a book in a book in a book in a book in a book in a book in a book. Habit. Lockwood’s lack of inhibition can cause trouble. In a group in New York, hosted by the Women’s Award earlier in the spring, she suddenly glided from the mid-stool. She no longer allowed herself to do karaoke.

Lockwood began writing life quietly as a poet. She found her first major audience on Twitter, which reads self-proclaimed “absurdity”, like a series of Dadaism six words, in Dan Brown’s novel, the flower metaphor of rock slides, dewdrops and plot holes can be used – quickly to define the media’s Zany Zany, Waggish Ethos. When she returns to the page, it is in the memoir of Priestdaddy (2017), which records her impossible childhood as the daughter of a Midwest Catholic priest with guitar cut, action effects. Lockwood has since added novels and criticism to her literary arsenal. Throughout the genre, her phone card is her clear voice, which pierces and lures with agility and cheerful perversion, pressing readers near her comics, leaning towards “me.” “I love men easily because of some quirks in my upbringing, it’s Chrisley or a slut thing” is classic Lockwood. Therefore, this confession does not appear in personal articles, but in commentary on John Updike’s work.

When she gets sick, her first instinct is to joke. “My Story Will Be For Me by John Harvard” is how she published an article London Book Review In July 2020, the last thing she did before the pandemic was to teach the essence of online life at Harvard University. On the plane home, a man coughed and coughed. A few days later, she had a fever. Even if her temperature drops, things make mistakes. Her hands will burn or numb. Her skin was filled with pain. She noticed that her body had adapted to the weather in Savannah, as if its stress system had affected some of the mysterious weather. A thorn was pierced at the bottom of her neck, and her thumb was wrapped around: The storm is coming.

The worst problem, though, was her mind. exist LRB Paper – “Post Coronavirus Crazy?” is the title – Lockwood describes “stuttering in my speech, changing syllables, and choosing the wrong noun altogether.” Her memory collapsed. She could hardly understand. Despite this, she thought she had seen the fog surpassing the fog. “I know I’ve been able to do this, and I’ll be able to do it again,” she wrote. The Oasis turned out to be a rae building in the sea, not the beginning, not the end of her ordeal. “That was the last time I felt like I sounded like myself,” Lockwood said at dinner.

For writers like Lockwood, the sound on the page is the whole game. The prospect of losing it is frightening, equivalent to the cruel arthritis of a pianist. But this is also very familiar. When she was sick, Lockwood had just finished writing her first novel, “Nobody is talking about this” (2021). Its unnamed Alter-Ego protagonist plays her romp post on Twitter-style platforms, thus finding the famous one. But the more sensitive she is to the internet, the more she is worried that her private stream of consciousness will be swept away in a collective surge, which makes her language brag with her own words (her own cliché). She is possessed by the hive’s thoughts, and she is increasingly “who believes others are writing down her heart.”

The treatment for excessive life online is to unplug it, which is difficult. But what should I do in all patients for a disease that no one fully understands? Lockwood now knows that most of what has bothered her was a permanent migraine state. She usually doesn’t experience headaches, but extreme sensory harassment – the vision of a gorilla in a tree, and what she calls “folding”, which is the constant repetition of the attitude of dialogue, sentence, sentence, sentence. She would note this in her Mad Notebook, a blue-covered Moleskine, and a bunch of ideas she had, observations from the reading she worked hard to do and the various medical options she was trying: Gabapentin, Rescue Triptans, Rescue Triptans, Migraine medications Ajovy and Qulipta. In the restaurant, she recalls that the first thing to help was that the tea is full of psilocybin mushrooms, which the writer Jami Attenberg had mailed to her. “A small dose,” she insisted.

“You would be in the pool, sometimes in the afternoon hours,” Kendall recalled. He was forty-four years old, bald and athletic, calmed the calm, capable manner of Mr. Clean’s leisurely little brother. When Lockwood was in her most disgusting state, she was sure the floor of their apartment would collapse at her feet. Kendall took action, moved them out of the city, and went to a nearby house on Wilmington Island where she was free to float. “I think we can heal your body,” he said.

“I especially like how its abstract quality makes anything I say sound reasonable.”

“I could listen to music again,” Lockwood recalls. In the pool, she repeated the “Hosianna Mantra” by the groundbreaking German electronic band Popol Vuh. The album has been described as a “meditation of faith and uncertainty” since 1972, which is a prayer. “Maybe that’s why writing comes back.”

After Lockwood is good enough, she begins to shape the fragments of the broken period of her life into a novel, “Will Will and Another You,” Riverhead will be released in September. “I went crazy and edited it.” It was a collaboration between two different people, both of them were hers. Disease recurrence is considered an impostor or thief, not just an experience of self-experience, but Lockwood writes: “The self is replaced with something of self.” She says that being sick will lurk at the core of all novels and at the core of all life. “What is the self-expression? What is a person? What am I?

Like other writers who use automation tags, Lockwood finds his experience at work fruitful. However, when she writes in a strict factual pattern, she is sometimes accused of making up. 2016 New Republic A Trump rally sent to New Hampshire, she described seeing a picture of inflatable sand wood on Melania on Bikini Island. writing LRB About Karl Ove Knausgaard – She was a contributing editor of the publication and did not edit other people’s papers, but, she told me, “As an outsider’s artist”, wrote free, minimalist articles, she recalled her trip, she had held a literary show in Norway, and only discovered a member of Knausgaard, a place that both canceled his entertainment and rejected his entertainment again and again. Critics picked out these two details, which was so strange that they were obviously much like Lockwood that they could not be eliminated. This made her feel indignant. “I almost never made up for anything,” she told me. “I just noticed something different.”

So, in her company. One morning in Savannah, I went to Fancy Parker at an upscale gas station grocery store with Lockwood and Kendall for a snack. After breaking up checking the chip choice, I found the two of them in the corner of the family kindness, where an employee and Johnny Bravo’s huge biceps and huge Johnny Bravo put up a huge statue of Virgin Mary on the shelf, next to some scented candles. Lockwood chats with him. “We got Catholic catalogs in my home and they can be expensive,” she said.

In Lockwood’s world, the saint’s phantom is not strictly strange. She is the second of five children born in Cincinnati, Ohio, from Cincinnati, Ohio. Karen comes from a large Catholic family. Greg is an atheist, like many atheists, and is proud of it. After they got married, at the age of eighteen, he enlisted in the army and served on nuclear submarines. After the marathon’s view of the “exorcist”, he met God and found his faith, which was hundreds of feet of seabed.

Shortly thereafter, Rockwood was born in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Her father began his career as Minister of Lutheran Church, but turned Catholic at the age of six. In the Vatican, his case was examined by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, later Pope Benedict XVI, who, as Lockwood wrote, allowed him to keep his wife, even his children, “no matter how bad they are.” Greg Lockwood turned out to be no ordinary person. As depicted in “Priestdaddy”, his Titanic charm is only whimsical with his windy storm. Karen, the center of the family, kept the family running when Greg moved them from the parish to the parish, which Lockwood called “the worst city in the Midwest.”
