Description
Big Pig, Little Pig: A Year on a Smallholding in South-West France by Jacqueline Yallop. In this thought-provoking memoir, Jacqueline Yallop recounts her journey to rural village life in south-west France. She and her husband buy two pigs for slaughter, but as she gets to know them better, her English sentimentality threatens to get in the way of making a difficult decision. This book is not just about that fateful choice, but also explores the ethics of meat eating in modern times. At its heart, Big Pig, Little Pig is a love story - one that celebrates the enduring bond between humans and pigs over centuries. As Jacqueline forms an unexpected attachment to her pigs, she challenges herself to consider whether we should know, respect, and even love the animals we eat. A moving exploration of animal welfare, food production, and personal growth, Big Pig, Little Pig is a unique and engaging read for anyone interested in the human-animal connection.
