Paul Zindel

Paul Zindel, Jr. (May 15, 1936 – March 27, 2003) was an American playwright, young adult novelist, and educator. Quotes The Pigman (1968) Didn’t she know how sick to my stomach it made me feel to know it’s possible to end your life with only a baboon to talk to? …somehow it was as if I was being told about something wonderful, something beautiful just waiting for me. All I had to do was wait long enough. He was the ugliest, most vicious-looking baboon I’ve ever seen in my life. I mean a real baboon. And there’s the pigman, the smiling pigman, leaning all the way over the guardrail, tossing peanuts to this mean baboon.
