Cuic Cuic is a character in the book Papillon.
Description
After Papillon and the pirate Sylvain escape from Devil's Island, using sacks of coconuts for flotation.
After days of drifting under the relentless sun, surviving on coconut pulp, they made landfall at the mainland.
Sylvain sank in quicksand after having abandoned his coconut sack.
Papillon then meets Cuic Cuic, who had built a hut on an "island".
The hut was set on solid ground surrounded by quicksand; Cuic Cuic depended on a pig to find the safe route over the quicksand.
The men and the pig made their way to Georgetown, British Guiana, by boat.
