“Mary Shelley had been dead a year when her son unlocked her portable desk and found the remains of human heart. The heart, he knew, had been his father's. It had rested in the desk for thirty years, unseen and untouched, since the day in 1822 when Mary Shelley tenderly wrapped it in pages of poetry and put it away. Dust and bits of dried-up muscle were all that was left.” - Catherine Reef, Mary Shelley: The Strange True Tale of Frankenstein's Creator • • Happy Yule Bookdragons!
