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.

I'm just confused as to why this story exists... Why so descriptive about the sexualization and intimate ongoings between the large and small people?

huh....

Although not exactly sweet, it is quite an interesting listen. A few lewd moments, but nothing overtly graphic. Definitely worth the listen

Short and sweet

Very much enjoyed this clever tale. Kept imagining it as an amazing movie. Would read more from this author.

Clever

A TrueType wonderful fantasy, a story that makes you think, not what I thought it was about before reading it.

Story plot

Enjoyable, detailed, funny and imaginative. I wish it was longer. Great storyline. Can’t wait for another installment

Great Story

Fabulously written and surprisingly very interesting, imaginative and really good. The descriptions can be interchanged with so many differences that occur realistically and naturally with humans. Excellent read!

I WISH THIS WERE LONGER!

A quick, insightful piece of speculative satire. Let me mark out a singular difference, let’s make it everything that we think we can know about that person, let’s name all the reasons why we should keep those others away from our worlds (and judge those who challenge that), let’s fetishize that difference….starting to sound familiar? Only here the difference is that the people are little. It really is an incisive critique of …well, life.

Clever

It is an interesting concept for the story, but it has no clear ending. I am not a fan of stories without an ending.

Interesting parents abruptly

This was a short story about a class of little people who live along side regular sized people. The situation is described, including sexual habits, which could have been left out. A strangle tale, which didn’t make much sense.

Strange, Weird Story

I really enjoyed this book. I have one minor criticism, I wish it was longer. I could have easily listened to a longer, fuller version of this book. Surprisingly. I want to know more about this community.

Great Short Book
