About this listen

They are citizens of our town who own property, pay taxes, and vote. They dress like us. They speak like us. They eat like us. They are two inches tall.

From Steven Millhauser, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Martin Dressler and one of the most imaginative and essential voices of our time, comes a fable about a race of miniature people and the way of life they have come master within our own. By turns enchanting and provocative, The Little People explores the fascination and unease the little people create in us, examines our private desire to disappear into their world, and reveals what happens when our personal and romantic lives inevitably collide.

What on earth was this ....

What I was hoping for was an exploration of the themes of society, prejudices, etc through a unique lens.

What I actually heard was a series of disjointed ideas.
