And the emotions that churn in darkrooms overnight as the players gather in the parkvisitors’ center are as intense as in any closetdrama. There’s enough action and furor here tokeep readers turning the pages, and the culturalrevelations of the story suggest that the humanneed for mystery outweighs the desire for answers.
