Synopsis: From the creator of The Book of Bunny Suicides comes the book you’ve been waiting for: Selfish Pigs. Filled with more than 90 pieces of line art depicting pigs being selfish, this is the must-have for pig-lovers and Riley fans.
     It's pigs—and they're being selfish. Horribly, nastily selfish. They drink, they smoke, they steal, they eat pork and bacon, and they're funny while they're doing it. Do they metaphorically represent humans at their worst? Or are they just horrible swine who don't give a damn about metaphors? You'll have to judge for yourself.
