Bedside, Bathtub & Armchair Companion to Frankenstein

In this "electrifying guide to the world's most famous monster," Adams (the author of Sexual Politics of Meat in which she counts Frankenstein among vegetarians) and her colleagues at The College of Wooster present a humorous yet serious look at the genesis of Mary Shelley's creation and its cultural implications. The book includes pop media spinoffs, trivia, puzzles, and illustrations by Douglas Buchanan. Annotation 穢2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
