Book Synopsis The Frankenstein of 1790 and Other Lost Chapters from Revolutionary France by : Julia V. Douthwaite
Book excerpt: The French Revolution brings to mind violent mobs, the guillotine, and Madame Defarge, but it was also a publishing revolution. Douthwaite explores how the works within this corpus announced the new shapes of literature to come and reveals that vestiges of these stories can be found in novels by the likes of Mary Shelley.
