This was ok. I really struggled with the prose, there were some nice moments but in the end I won’t read this again. 
Ali Smith shows just how alike Art and gender are, both being deeply personal, while also shaped my social norms. I had the version of the book that started with George’s Story, but I just never got into the story.
