In the tradition of Lord of the Flies, Pigs is an exquisitely wrought fable about the excesses of the contemporary world.
The novel explores themes of dependence and betrayal through Isabel Grady's tumultuous journey as she marries her best friend Anna's lover and relocates to the remote mountains of Nepal. Living in a dilapidated palace, Isabel grapples with her husband's frequent absences and the looming visit from Anna, which stirs memories and fears. The vivid setting reflects the emotional turmoil of her marriage, enriched by lyrical prose that captures the oppressive heat, historical ruins, and the isolation of expatriate life. It offers a poignant exploration of love, loss, and self-discovery.
