The Pigs Ate My Little Brother (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798349372971)

The Pigs Ate My Little Brother is a darkly comic, unapologetically honest coming-of-age novel told through the voice of Billy Gleason - a pizza-slinging, comic-book-collecting young man navigating the chaos of adolescence, awkward romance, Catholic guilt, and a deep reservoir of grief he can't quite name.

Set in upstate New York during the late '60s and '70s, Billy's story unfolds through a series of hilarious, tender, and sometimes absurd encounters with women he loves too hard, a dysfunctional but familiar family, and the ghosts of his past. As he attempts to make sense of his spiraling romantic life and lingering childhood trauma, Billy brings readers into his raw, hilarious, and heartbreakingly human mind.

This is a story about first love and first loss, about memory and regret, about the way humor sometimes saves us when nothing else will - and yes, it really does involve pigs.
