Hungry Hollow : The Story of a Natural Place

Hungry Hollow : The Story of a Natural Place

Editorial Reviews
Toronto Globe & Mail, January 23, 1999
...One of his smartest forays is the chapter titled Microperson, in which a microbiologist named Dianne (Dianne sapiens) shrinks by degrees first to a 10th her normal size and finally to 1/100,000th. Dewdney picks up where "Fantastic Journey" leaves off, using Dianne's downsizing not just for adventurous effect but to consider what life's actually like in worlds of very different scale....All told, it's a tour de force that succeeds in awakening the reader to the life that's teeming everywhere underfoot.

Greenwire, The Environmental News Daily, October 20, 1998
...He narrates from a variety of characters ranging from a human biologist exploring biodiversity, to Lotor the racoon and species of the smallest bacterium.
