Description
Roark is a bad man. His pig is a bad pig. They match in devilish temperament and violent deeds.
Roark laughs at a drowned monk; his pig eats its own young and turns a boar sterile.
As a spiteful tithe, the pig is given to the local monastery.
The pig becomes a Christian. The pig is Saint Katy the Virgin. Fantastical and farcical, this short story parodies religious tropes and stereotypes.
With a lively imagination and piercing wit, John Steinbeck delivers an absurd tale that amuses and entertains whilst asking powerful, revealing questions.
