THOSE familiar with the work of the late Glaswegian polymath Alasdair Gray were unanimously excited upon the news that his 1992 novel Poor Things was set to be adapted for the big screen by odd-ball filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos .While its promotion campaign thus far has largely sparked anticipation among potential viewers , it is not without controversy.
Dallas states that “the new film therefore would be an interpretation of the novel, and I think Alasdair would have been aware of this and OK with it as throughout his own creative life he interpreted and used other works in this way too”. The Alasdair Gray Archive is working to reconcile this misgiving by creating an online educational resource that hopes to root Poor Things back in the city that inspired it. Ahead of the film’s release, a new edition of the novel has been published by Bloomsbury .
Alongside his writing, Gray is a renowned artist who without fail produced stunning images to accompany his literature.
