I read My Brilliant Friend on vacation in late September, and it truly was an incredible book. When I got home, I read the next two in the series, and will be reading the fourth this weekend. They are brutal, devastating stories of poverty, repression, misogyny, violence, sex, power, politics.
The show is a little muted to me, the sets a little too perfect, but it is very good tv, and worth watching, maybe even more so than if you haven't read the novels.
