Poor Things by Alasdair Gray

4.0

This is definitely a post-modern Frankenstein! The storyline was rather interesting, especially at the end where Victoria's letter disproves the entire book, or does it? That's the thing, you can't be sure and I found that intriguing! The only critique I have is that it felt dragging at times as the story seemed to be going nowhere of importance, such as Wilderburn's letter and a large chunk of the historical notes. Except that, it was quite enjoyable!
