- Book Synopsis
- A strange and brilliant teenager's first panic attacks send him down a rabbit hole in this wild, critically acclaimed debut. 'A stunning debut' GUARDIAN 'Stylish and unsettling' OBSERVER 'A true original' PAUL MURRAY 'Brilliant . . . Mind-bending, psychologically intricate, really thrilling' LAUREN GROFF Nicholas has plenty of reasons to feel unstable. He's fifteen, the child of divorced parents, living with his mostly absent dad in the bleak Chicago suburbs, and an outsider at school. Then, one day, he forgets how to breathe. The doctor calls it panic, but Nicholas suspects something stranger: that the Greek god Pan is trapped inside him. As his sense of reality fractures, Nicholas and his friends search for answers in art, music and literature, reaching beyond the limits of their lives. Thrilling, surprising and darkly funny, Pan explores the unsettling forces shaping our inner worlds. A WASHINGTON POST, TIME and SLATE Book of the Year
