Let Moore take you by the hand and lead you down the streets of London.

Revisado: 11-26-24

if you've picked this up, you probably know what to expect, but this is perhaps Alan Moore at his least dense and, at heart, a simple tale - however it's couched in mostly exquisite, occasionally purple prose, is never dull and you'll meet some interesting people along the way.

Other reviews have summarized the plot, but the narration is excellent, with well defined character accents throughout and an engaging cadence. there are a few clumsy punched in edits which slightly marr a 5 star performance.

I'm looking forward to the next three installments of the world that sometimes exists, glimpsed out of the corners of our eyes.

An interesting listen....

... but not, alas, about rabies. I would estimate perhaps 15% of this is about rabies and the remainder somewhat desperate leaps into subjects with a barely tangible connections to the topic. Fair, it is billed as "a cultural history", but there are seemingly endless and lengthy diversions into dogs, vampires, Gothic fiction and so forth. The book sags greatly, but is lifted somewhat by the chapter on Louis Pasteur.

The narration is marred by some clunky punch ins which seem to have come from a different studio and some equally clunky accents used when a quotation is being read.

...For the best experience, this is the movie adaptation, and suffers a bit from "Hollywood ization". very well read, though
