Life is not easy when you look one way on the outside and feel another way on the inside. But that's just the sort of life Porkington Hamm has, after getting a dose of Doctor Morty's experimental stem cell serum.
Thinking, feeling, and (mostly) looking human, he deals with discrimination, dysphoria, and social anxiety, and must come to terms with his origin. With help from his best friend Tom, Porkington explores the city, makes friends, and develops his culinary talents. He can often be found at the library, the outdoor market, and his favorite café. And when he forgets about himself and concentrates on helping others - that's when he's at his best.
But as in every town, there are people in the city he can't trust. Someone mysterious is stalking Porkington, and when Tom leaves town she makes her move. Is it the same person who got Doctor Morty fired from the university? Will her conversion therapy turn Porkington back into an ordinary pig?
Fun and inspirational reading for fans of magical realism, children's fantasy, and science fiction.
