What if the lady -- Jane Austen's contemporary --who conceived the
world's most intriguing modern monster (Doc Frankenstein's creature) --
was also a proto-suffragette, precursor-feminist, and, simultaneously,
much to her chagrin, wedded to a narcissist poet, whose liberalism urged
on his libertinism? How would such a woman think? What would she say
about her majuscule Romantic dilemma and miniscule romantic predicament?
Such are the questions that Chad Norman pursues in his act (and art) of
sympathetic re-animation: Squall: Poems in the Voice of Mary Shelley.
