Jolene’s Recent Updates

Jolene is on page 117 of 852 of Middlemarch: Every nerve and muscle in Rosamond was adjusted to the consciousness that she was being looked at. She was by nature an actress of parts that entered into her physique: she even acted her own character, and so well, that she did not know it to be precisely her own.

Jolene is on page 95 of 852 of Middlemarch: She did not look at things from the proper feminine angle. The society of such women was about as relaxing as going from your work to teach the second form, instead of reclining in a paradise with sweet laughs for bird-notes, and blue eyes for heaven.

There is no good way to talk about this book, and believe me, I've tried. I gifted it to a friend who, like me, has a baby son, and as I tried to explain why I bought it, she became quiet and still, and I felt like I was rambling and then just deflec ...more

Patricia Lockwood
“All my life I have overheard, all my life I have listened to what people will let slip when they think you are part of their we. A we is so powerful. It is the most corrupt and formidable institution on earth. Its hands are full of the crispest and most persuasive currency. Its mouth is full of received, repeating language. The we closes its ranks to protect the space inside it, where the air is different. It does not protect people. It protects its own shape.”
Patricia Lockwood, Priestdaddy

Patricia Lockwood
“A woman's body always stands on the outskirts of the town, verging on uncivilization. A think paper gown is all that separates it from the wilderness. Half of its whole being is devoted to remembering how to live in the woods. This is why Witch, this is why whore, this is why Unlucky, and this is why Unclean. This is why attempts to govern the female body always have the feeling of a last resort, because the female body is fundamentally ungovernable. Barbie, the neatest, tannest, blondest tall who ever existed. Barbie, from the Greek, meaning foreign or strange.”
Patricia Lockwood, Priestdaddy

Patricia Lockwood
“It is probably the last conversation like this the seminarian and I will have. After his ordination, particular friendships with women will be discouraged. I understand why, but in a wider sense, it is frightening. If you are not friends with women, they are theoretical to you.”
Patricia Lockwood, Priestdaddy

Patricia Lockwood
“The story of a family is always a story of complicity. It's about not being able to choose the secrets you've been let in on.”
Patricia Lockwood, Priestdaddy

“We want to call work what is work so that eventually we might rediscover what is love.”
