Patricia Lockwood is an American poet, novelist, and essayist (AKA the poet laureate of X, previously known as Twitter).
Her debut novel No One Is Talking About This was a Booker Prize finalist.
Her follow-up, Will There Ever Be Another You, has been described as a descent into insanity. It captures the pandemic's devastating effects on Patricia's real life, which led her into a state of brain-fog-induced mania. It investigates what keeps us alive in times of unprecedented disorientation and loss.
Patricia talks to Susie about the art of merging reality and fiction.
