More Poor Things

PoorThingsduo
Encouraged by the editors of Tropics of Meta: Historiography for the Masses, I expanded my previous posting about Alasdair Gray's book Poor Things (1992) into the essay, "Re-Visiting Poor Things:  The Book vs. the Movie."

This is my eighth essay (listed here) for Tropics of Meta, but who's counting?
