A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

From novelist, playwright, and poet Kitty Fitzgerald comes one of the sweetest and most singular characters since Christopher Boone in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. Society has rejected Jack Plum: born with a disfigurement, he is labeled either a monster or an imbecile by his abusive mother and thoughtless neighbors. But Jack has created a haven, his "pigtopia," a shelter in his cellar, with a tunnel out into the woods, built with his long-lost father, and shared with his beloved pet pigs. Then Jack meets Holly Lock, a sensitive young teenager who lives nearby, and offers her a piglet. Together they forge an unlikely and beautiful friendship. But society and fate intervene and Jack's secret world is threatened by forces beyond his control.

In September 2004, the sale of Pigtopia touched off a maelstrom of activity in the international publishing community. Sold in fifteen countries, it is already being viewed as a contender for literary attention and prizes.

In language of stunning beauty, Kitty Fitzgerald has created a startlingly original world with characters that will capture your imagination.
