The Story

The Pigman (cover) The Pigman

"Some very strange things have happened to us during the last few months, and we feel we should write them down while they're fresh in our minds. It's got to be written down now before John and I mature and repress the whole thing. . . John has compassion deep inside him, which is the real reason we got involved with the Pigman. Maybe at first John thought of it all simply as a way of getting money . . . but the second we met the old man, John changed."

-Loraine

In this unflinching account of a very unusual friendship, Lorraine Jensen and John Conlan, two high-school sophomores, are determined to tell the whole sad, zany story of Mr. Pignati, the Pigman.

Both the previous excerpts and picture (left) were taken from the (back) cover of Paul Zindel's The Pigman, printed by Bantam Books.
