What if Mary Shelley's Frankenstein were true?

What if Mary Shelley herself made the monster -- not the fictional Dr. Frankenstein?

And what if the monster was a woman, and fell in love with Mary Shelley, and travelled to America?

This is their story.

Shelley Jackson is the author of Patchwork Girl. A self-described "student in the art of digression," Jackson holds an AB in studio art from Stanford University and an MFA in creative writing from Brown University. A Village Voice "Writer on the Verge" and Pushcart Prize winner, she is also the author of the forthcoming Half Life, The Melancholy of Anatomy, several children's books, and SKIN, a story published in tattoos on the skin of 2095 volunteers.
