Summary: If this book offends, I don't advise riding the bus...
Review: This is a fun book adapted from a high-concept interactive website that you "explore" more than read. It is hysterical, moving, and sometimes a bit terrifying as you pour over a relic of someone's rage.

It can be graphic as some are complaining below, but I am not sure what they expected -- perhaps they should have thought to visit the website in advance of their purchase. I just reviewed another great interactive-internet collection, Not Proud: A Smorgasbord of Shame, and am starting to feel like I should have made the same suggestion there, since it was even more raunchy and freaky...

Anyway, you just have to step out in the world and see the same obscenities scattered on shreds of paper and scrawled on walls -- at least in Found it is given a concept and a context.

Review: We all owe Davy Rothbart a big "Thank You" for reminding us the importance of stopping for a moment, looking around and finding the humor and sadness inherant in even a tiny scrap of paper. If you ever have the chance to see the Found gang live...I highly recommend that you bring your favorite people along and enjoy!
