Domestic suspense, including Zoje Stage’s “Mothered” and Andrea Bartz’s “The Spare Room,” echoes the new normal.

Cue the horror theme: Stage expertly melds her brand of dread with a crime story lying just beneath the surface. Grace’s paradoxical hobby is catfishing young women to build up their self-esteem, but Jackie finding out about it sucks all the pleasure out of helping damsels in distress.

D.W. Winnicott’s idea of the “good enough mother” came to mind after I’d put the novels aside to look at two slim books theorizing issues around the pandemic. Jacqueline Rose is a semi-lapsed Freudian and very sharp literary critic. Her new book, “” , starts out in Camus and then wanders to the present day through Freud and other thinkers. Rose is adamant that her book is the link between the pandemic and the war in Ukraine; that personal and civil unrest are our emotional backdrops these days.

No one wins a pandemic. The best you can hope for is a participation trophy and a negative coronavirus test.
