Description:
When his grandmother dies and his grandfather is sent to a rest home, fifteen-year-old Danny decides to maintain life in the tiny cottage he's grown up in, as though nothing had ever changed. An ancient pig provides companionship. But then Danny falls in, love with Surinder, a young Indian girl who lives nearby, and suddenly life holds unanticipated challenges and dangers. The emotional haven he and Surinder create is one of great beauty and tenderness. But the world of the gritty town they live in is less friendly, and as their love deepens, racial tension rears its head.
Expand description
A dreamy, elegantly written novel, Pig reveals the feelings of sexual awakening, the need for love, and the effects of old age and death in remarkable prose. Pig is a graceful evocation of change and life itself.
