Annotation: "This imaginative and singular poetry collection interrogates the broadest ideas surrounding the humble pig#20;farm animal, men/masculinity, police and state violence, desire, queerness, global food systems, religion/Judaism and law#20;to reimagine various chaotic histories of the body, faith, ecology, desire, hygiene, and power. Sam Sax draws on autobiography and history to create poems that explore topics ranging from drag queens and Miss Piggy to pig farming and hog lagoons. Collectively, these poems, borne of Sax's obsession, offer a varied picture of what it means to be a human being. Delivered in a variety of forms, infused with humor, grace, sadness, and anger, Pig is a wholly unique collection from a virtuosic and original poet"--
