About this book

A chilling reimagining of a literary classic meets contemporary New Zealand.

What if, after being shunned by humanity, Dr. Frankenstein's creature found himself not lost to the Arctic, but rescued by an eccentric English expedition? Cast away once more in a remote New Zealand fjord, the creature's struggle for identity and acceptance begins anew.

Vincent O'Sullivan masterfully blends gothic speculation with wry, humane storytelling. Explore themes of isolation, memory, and the search for meaning in this collection of essential short stories, where the past echoes through the present, and the human condition is laid bare.

  • Perfect for readers of literary and historical fiction
  • Explores themes of identity, isolation, and redemption
  • Features a unique reimagining of Frankenstein's creature
