One Sunday morning, a mysterious silent figure is found sleeping in a church in an unnamed American town. The congregants call this amnesiac \x27Pew\x27 and seek to uncover who they are: their age; their gender, their race, their intentions. Are they an orphan, or something worse? What terrible trouble is Pew running from? And why won\x27t they speak?
Unable to agree on how to treat a person they cannot categorize \- whether to adopt or imprison, help or harm them \- this small town is quickly undone by Pew\x27s terrifying silence. What remains is a foreboding, provocative, and amorphous fable about the world today: our borders and our boundaries, our fears and our woes.
\x27A stranger comes to town, and takes us with them into their estrangement among the denizens of a conservative religious community. The people of this community are stifling, and generous, cruel, earnest, needy, overconfident, fragile and repressive, which is to say that they are brilliantly rendered<\/b> by their wise maker, Catherine Lacey\x27
\- Rachel Kushner<\/b>, author of The Mars Room<\/i>
