Review of In Search of the Mole People


The opening is completely fascinating-- the image of regular people going off the subway platform in search of mole people. I would have liked more on their motivation for going down there, and more from the people who are down there. It’s such a huge subject, and four minutes is far too little to cover very much. Still, it’s an interesting companion piece to the book and it would fit in really nicely with other discussions… about homelessness, urban decay or madness.
