The novel was called "a magnificently brisk, funny, dirty, brainy book" by the London Review of Books. It is a departure from Gray's usual subject-matter of Glasgow realism and fantasy. However, its Victorian narrative takes in Gray's previous concerns with social inequalities, relationships, memory and identity. Poor Things contains illustrations by Alasdair Gray, which the text claims are by the Scottish etcher and illustrator William Strang. It was adapted to film in 2023 and was nominated for 11 Academy Awards.".
