Firmin - Adventures Of A Metropolitan Lowlife by Sam Savage
3.0
Despite only giving this book 3 stars I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to almost everyone I know.
Firmin is a classic outsider tale about a rat who develops the ability to read. The story quickly rises above its quirky premise and is genuinely affecting and engaging.
I usually shy away from all things anthropomorphic but, honestly, what's not to love about a rat who loves literature, Fred Astaire and porn?
