The Pig Goes to Hog Heaven

"A triumphant conclusion" to the spirited Irish trilogy from the author of The Pig Did It and The Pig Comes to Dinner (Richmond Times-Dispatch).

Kitty McCloud, the trilogy's leading lady, would let these words stand, even were she a reviser of aphorisms rather than a "fixer" of great literary works by the likes of Bronte, Hardy, and Eliot no less, by writing "improved" versions of which she makes an outsized bestselling living that affords her the dubious luxury of living in contentious bliss with her husband, Kieran Sweeney, in their ancient, haunted Irish Castle Kissane.

For in Mr. Caldwell's new comedy—well, tragicomedy, in the truly Irish sense—almost nothing seems to be over—disappeared characters rematerialize, romances that seemed dead burst back to ardent life, and even Taddy and Brid, Castle Kissane's comely spirits, find new meaning in Yogi's remark as they resolve themselves into much-longed-for conclusions.
