A remarkable creation, a baroque opera of grief, laced with lines of haunting beauty and profundity. The Washington PostNow in paperback, the bold, genredefying book that asked: What if Mary Shelley had not invented Frankenstein's monster at all but had met him when she was a girl of eight, sitting by her mother's grave, and he came to her unbidden?In a riveting mix of fact and poetic license, Laurie Sheck gives us the 'monster' in his own words: recalling how he was 'made' and how Victor Frankenstein abandoned him; pondering the tragic tale of the Shelleys and the intertwining of his life with Mary's (whose fictionalized letters salt the narrative, along with those of her nineteenthcentury intimates); taking notes on all aspects of human strivingfrom Gertrude Stein to robotics to the Northern explorers whose lonely quest mirrors his ownas he tries to understand the strange race that made yet shuns him, and to find his own freedom of mind.
