Tarzan and the ant men 1924 book Edgar Rice Burroughs

The concept of miniature societies is so imaginative and adds a new layer to the adventure. I wonder if Burroughs was inspired by earlier myths or stories about tiny worlds.

The portrayal seemed to reflect some outdated stereotypes, but I’m curious if others saw this as a commentary or just a product of its time.

Certain parts felt brisk while others slowed down, which made me wonder whether this was intentional to build tension or just a reflection of storytelling style.
