        Pigs

        by Johanna Stoberock

        FOUR CHILDREN LIVE ON AN ISLAND that is the repository for all the world’s garbage. Garbage arrives; the children sort it and then feed it to a herd of pigs. The pigs are beautiful, but fierce, with sharp teeth and insatiable appetites, and they will eat anything—even human flesh. When a boy washes ashore in a barrel, the children must decide what to do with him: is he more of the world’s detritus, meant to be fed to the pigs, or is he one of them? Combining elements of magical realism and suspense, this literary novel explores questions about community, environmental responsibility, and the possibility of innocence.
