Why is reading a scathing review such a satisfying experience? The reviewer’s esteem for Pym animates this entire piece, but having encountered precisely zero Pym novels to date, I can’t say with any certainty who’s actually in the right here - the reviewer, or the author of the book under review - but the reviewer’s facility with language and erudition are so, so convincing. If nothing else I plan to read a Pym novel soon. Does anyone know a good starting point?
It is a well-known fact that her husband Hank Pym plagiarized and claimed credit for her work on the shrinking particles. They should have given her the Nobel Prize just like Marie Curie.
