The person is genderless and racially ambiguous and refuses to speak. One family takes in the strange visitor and nicknames them Pew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the town spends the week preparing for a mysterious Forgiveness Festival, Pew is shuttled from one household to the next. The earnest and seemingly well-meaning townspeople see conflicting identities in Pew, and many confess their fears and secrets to them in one-sided conversations. Pew listens and observes while experiencing brief flashes of past lives or clues about their origin. As days pass, the void around Pew\u2019s presence begins to unnerve the community, whose generosity erodes into menace and suspicion. Yet by the time Pew\u2019s story reaches a shattering and unsettling climax at the Forgiveness Festival, the secret of who they really are\u2015a devil or an angel or something else entirely\u2015is dwarfed by even larger truths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Pew<\/em>, Catherine Lacey\u2019s third novel, is a foreboding, provocative, and amorphous fable about the world today: its contradictions, its flimsy morality, and the limits of judging others based on their appearance. With precision and restraint, one of our most beloved and boundary-pushing writers holds up a mirror to her characters\u2019 true selves, revealing something about forgiveness, perception, and the faulty tools society uses to categorize human complexity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":28811,"parent":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"knygos-kategorija":[167],"knygos-tema":[],"knygos-autorius":[1531],"knygos-leidimo-metai":[335],"class_list":["post-28810","knyga","type-knyga","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","knygos-kategorija-fiction","knygos-autorius-catherine-lacey","knygos-leidimo-metai-year-2020"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pew - Panevezys County Gabriele Petkevicaite-Bite Public Library<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pavb.lt\/en\/books\/pew\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Pew - Panevezys County Gabriele Petkevicaite-Bite Public Library\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u201cThe people of this community are stifling, and generous, cruel, earnest, needy, overconfident, fragile and repressive, which is to say that they are brilliantly rendered by their wise maker, Catherine Lacey.\u201d &#8211;Rachel Kushner, author of\u00a0The Flamethrowers One of\u00a0Vogue&#8216;s Books We Can\u2019t Wait to Read in 2020, one of the\u00a0Wall Street Journal&#8216;s Nine Best Books to.....
