jescoqueerbilly 's review for:
Frankissstein
by Jeanette Winterson
This book is gimmicky at best and transphobic at worst. I love everything I have read by Jeanette Winterson before this book, and I think this story would have been very interesting if it focused on Mary Shelley and Ada Lovelace, but the writing about the trans character is beyond cringe-provoking. I’m not sure what would motivate a writer of such breathtaking literary works as Oranges are not the only fruit, The Passion, Sexing the Cherry, and others to put this book into the world when it was so unnecessary a thing.
