This is a absolutely mind blowing book. Jennifer Toth goes into the seldom seen world of the tunnel people. There are worlds underneath the city of New York, vast tunnels some used and some forgotten to all but the Mole People. Sometimes frightening, sometimes sad and always on the edge.
She learns that relationships go a long way and that there are unspoken and spoke rules and regulations in this world.
Often the people in this world are the drug addicts and the alcoholics, sometimes they are insane.
She tells their stories and befriends some along the way.
Death and hardscrabble are a way of life and the Mole People have their own turfs, sometimes 7 stories below the surface of the streets.
Jennifer learns the hard way about unspoken rules and into the tunnels with out a escort.
This is a very interesting and thought provoking book, it will leave you wondering and grateful.
