Beggar children, dubbed Cochon by Wealthy Devils, are considered less-than-human. Easter City is told from the POV of Nip, a Cochon on Main Street. Nip has had premonitions of the future in his dreams for as long as he can remember, though they reveal details necessary to his immediate survival. For instance he dreams of where his next meal will come from. However this changes when he dreams of a boy who looks like him. In the following days he meets the boy, Joq, and they hatch a plan to steal from the Wealthy Devils. Views: 653
