I have read it. A friend sent it to me for my birthday. A very good book, especially since I recognize the places described and can identify with the incredible smell of pig-farms. Could be interesting to see the tv adaptation. And I'm looking forward to reading the next two books.

Queen -- I had no involvement with farm animals at UofI. My degree is in ecology. I can understand making you ride on the back of the truck after being infused with pig smells. I have the pleasure of annoying a train full of commuters after my afternoons in the pig-house Luckily they haven't make me ride on the outside of the train yet....
