Synopsis

In 1816, a nineteen-year-old single mother wrote a novel that transformed our vision of birth, bodies, and who we call "monsters." Traveling from London to Italy and into our own technological future, Creature: A Novel of Mary Shelley and Frankenstein blends historical realism and literary magic to show how a bookish, haunted girl learns to confront her monsters by bringing them to life.
