The_Pigman

The Pigman The content of the book may seem somewhat simple. There are not many characters. The end of the book is sad. However, I find that there are many important messages within the book. The story itself presented in The Pigman by Paul Zindel is very interesting and the characters are well developed. There are three main characters in this book. John and Lorraine are good friends and are the ones who are supposed to have written the book. They take turns writing each chapter, starting with John. John begins by introducing himself and the actual story. He describes it as being a “memorial epic” to the man who they knew as the Pigman. John seems to be somewhat of a troublemaker, or simply a bad boy. Lorraine later describes him as being quite good-looking and tall with brown hair and blue eyes. He wants to eventually become an actor, for he has a very vivid imagination and much confidence. Lorraine is especially excited about writing this book partially because she wishes to become a writer. She also wishes to pay homage to the Pigman; they both eventually felt john, lorraine, pigman, house, norton, very, about, mother, book, even, out, lorraine’s, pigman’s, one, mr, bobo, pignati, died, day, being, after, wanted, told, think, since, party, much, man, going, describes, seemed, phone, person, old, next
