An American poet, memoirist, and cultural surrealist, Patricia Lockwood writes at the intersection of screen and soul. She filters feeling through the strange poetry of online life, turning scrolling into prayer and glitch into rhythm. Her prose toggles between irony and ache — half-meme, half-lament — as she asks what remains of the body and belief once everything is exposed to view.

Lockwood’s sentences shimmer with digital overstimulation, but underneath the humour there’s mourning: for silence, for privacy, for the unrecorded thought. She is both witness and spectacle, saint and scroller.
