Pet - Catherine Chidgey

Detalii:

n nA suspenseful new psychological thriller from the Womens Prize for Fiction longlisted and Dublin Literary Award shortlisted author of Remote Sympathy, Catherine Chidgey.n nLike every other girl in her class, twelve-year-old Justine is drawn to her glamorous, charismatic new teacher and longs to be her pet. However, when a thief begins to target the school, Justines sense that something isnt quite right grows ever stronger. With each twist of the plot, this gripping story of deception and the corrosive power of guilt takes a yet darker turn. Justine must decide where her loyalties lie.n nSet in New Zealand in the 1980s and probing themes of racism, misogyny and the oppressive reaches of Catholicism, Pet will take a rightful place next to other classic portraits of childhood betrayal and psychological suspense: Peter Jacksons Heavenly Creatures, Peter Weirs Picnic at Hanging Rock, and Marilynne Robinsons Housekeeping among them.n nRefreshing, compelling and surprising.--Ann Morgan, author of Beside Myself and Reading the Worldn
