520 How does a story begin? Sometimes it begins with a dream,
and a dreamer. Mary is one such dreamer, a little girl who
learns to read by tracing the letters on the tombstone of
her famous feminist mother, Mary Wollstonecraft, and whose
only escape from her strict father and overbearing
stepmother is through the stories she reads and imagines.
Unhappy at home, she seeks independence, and at the age of
sixteen runs away with poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, another
dreamer. Two years later, they travel to Switzerland where
they meet a famous poet, Lord Byron. On a stormy summer
evening, with five young people gathered around a fire,
Byron suggests a contest to see who can create the best
ghost story. Mary has a waking dream about a monster come
to life. A year and a half later, Mary Shelley's
terrifying tale, Frankenstein: or, the Modern Prometheus,
is published -- a novel that goes on to become the most
enduring monster story ever and one of the most popular
legends of all time. A riveting and atmospheric picture
book about the young woman who wrote one of the greatest
horror novels ever written and one of the first works of
science fiction, Mary Who Wrote Frankenstein is an
exploration of the process of artistic inspiration that
will galvanize readers and writers of all ages.
