(3) YA Sixteen-year-old Mary elopes with an older (and married) poet, forsaking her family to bear his child. But her passionate life of ideals is undercut with a darkness that erupts in scandal, heartbreak, and the nightmarish imaginings that will become Frankenstein. Rather than developing its historical underpinnings, this dramatic reinvention of Mary Shelley's life explores the Romantic concepts of love and creation.
Reviewer: Claire E. Gross
