Sausages do not grow on trees or somewhere underground. Sausages are made from pigs. That's the way it is. This book is about a forgotten grandfather, a mean butcher, the sweet little pig called Knor and the sausage competition of the century. If you don't like sausage, you better not read it. And if you do like sausage, you shouldn’t really either ... Or should you?
