Patricia Lockwood has written a new work, with some outlets referring to it as a novel, while others do not specify the type of work. The piece appears to be related to her personal experiences, including the covid pandemic, and has been described in various ways, including as a "fever dream" and a reflection of "post-covid madness". Lockwood has also published diary entries in the London Review of Books, though it is unclear if these are directly related to the new work.
