Kias_Hammy reviewed Poor Things by Alasdair Gray
Review of 'Poor Things' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Such a delightful, original, hilarious, clever and empathic book. Heavy sigh. Just loved it. I heard that the movie is only McCandless's POV and omits Bella's corrections. Not sure if that is true as I have not seen the movie, but the Bella perspective is absolutely essential, grounds the narrative and gives the book depth. The last section of extended fictional footnotes gets too fragmented and I was not so engaged, but even so it cannot take away the little masterpiece of a work that this is.
