An eagerly awaited novel . . . about a woman whose life is overwhelmed by the internet * The Times * Following her acclaimed comic memoir Priestdaddy, a fast and furious debut novel about being embedded deep in the digital world * Guardian * A delightfully weird look at our service to the internet (fitting in a year that gave us the doomscroll ) and human connection and intersection * Stylist * A bawdy story about a woman whose life is turned upside down when a viral social media post makes her famous, just as family disaster strikes * Independent * A formidably gifted writer who can do pretty much anything she pleases * New York Times Book Review * Set to be one of 2021's biggest books . . . riveting * Daily Mail * The poet and essayist turns her hand to fiction in this fragmentary tale that addresses urgent questions about the absurdity of the digital world * Harper's Bazaar * A love letter to the infinite scroll * Elle * Reading Patricia Lockwood feels like looking through a kaleidoscope built by a mischievous sorcerer - the world is suddenly rearranged in fragments that are cosmic, wondrous, humiliating, and profane. No One Is Talking About This is a furiously original novel, alive and unstable; the book builds to a reminder of how devastation and connection produce each other, endlessly and surprisingly, both on the internet and in human places that our shared digital consciousness can never reach -- Jia Tolentino Patricia Lockwood dives deep into the ephemerality and meaninglessness of modern life to emerge with a novel that is breathtakingly humane and memorable. No One Is Talking About This is hilarious, affectionate and deeply-felt. There is nothing that Lockwood - and I don't say this lightly - can't do -- Nicole Flattery, author of SHOW THEM A GOOD TIME Unique and poignant * Red Magazine * Glorious. It crackles with energy and life. It's funny, it's hectic, and it will sometimes trip you up with a sudden sense of anger and pain . . . A genuine original * Sunday Times on 'Priestdaddy' * Patricia Lockwood has produced from her peculiar childhood something that is exceptional - exquisitely written, funny, disturbing and freighted with insight, lightly worn * Daily Telegraph on 'Priestdaddy' * Lockwood's prose is cute and dirty and innocent and experienced, Betty Boop in a pas de deux with David Sedaris . . . It is, for sure, like no book I have read * New York Times on 'Priestdaddy' * Funny and anarchic . . . Priestdaddy is a piece of autobiographical writing like no other . . . Naughty, innocent, truthful * The Times on 'Priestdaddy' * One of the most remarkable, hilarious, jaw-droppingly candid and affecting memoirs I have read for some time . . . A combination of manic levity and profound unease, a sense of genuine injustice tethered to a smart-alec whipcrack * Spectator on 'Priestdaddy' * Brilliantly silly . . . A dazzling comic memoir * Guardian on 'Priestdaddy' * One of America's most relevant and funniest writers. Lockwood's humour - conversational, sensitive, mordant - serves as her work's bedrock and signature . . . Priestdaddy will certainly make you laugh out loud. But it will also move you to tears * Playboy on 'Priestdaddy' * Extraordinary * Observer on 'Priestdaddy' * I really admire and love this book. Patricia Lockwood is a completely singular talent and this is her best, funniest, weirdest, most affecting work yet -- Sally Rooney
