From Monsters and Critics.com Books News USA Today has a five question interview with the “novelist” and “singer” Jimmy Buffett. Not much of depth is said, but fans should give it a go, anyway. His new novel, Swine Not? Is about a pet peg living in a four star NYC hotel. When asked why he resorted to this subject matter, Buffett replied with, “This one just popped into my lap. I liked it. Starts out as one thing and ends up as another.” Sounds deep. The product description states, “When Southern belle Ellie McBride moves her twins from Vertigo, Tennessee to New York City, they wouldn't dream of leaving behind the family pig Rumpy. But the posh hotel where Ellie has found work (and living space) has "No Pets" writ large on its portal. So hiding Rumpy from the hotel staff---especially the ultra-carnivorous hotel chef, who would like nothing better than to transform their pet into pork roast---becomes imperative.” Little Brown is the publisher.
