About
En Haïti, au début des années 80, le gouvernement de Duvalier, avec la complicité des Etats-Unis, fait abattre les cochons créoles, cochons noirs qu'on surnomme la tirelire du pauvre, pour les remplacer par des cochons roses. A partir de cet événement historique, l'auteur campe le personnage d'une femme emblématique, Myrtha Mexil, qui se révolte contre cette injustice et fera tout pour sauver la race des cochons créoles.
