About the Book

Pig Tales: A Novel of Lust and Transformation.

The original novel was published in 1996. Translated by Linda Coverdale.

Pig Tales is the story of a young woman who lands a position at Perfumes Plus, a beauty boutique/“massage” parlor. She enjoys great success until she slowly metamorphoses into... a pig. What happens to her then overturns all our ideas about relationships between man, woman, and beast in a stunning feminist fable of political and sexual corruption.
