Mary's Monster by Lita Judge

Love, Madness, and How Mary Shelley Created Frankenstein

A haunting, illustrated novel-in-verse tracing Mary Shelley’s turbulent coming-of-age—from fraught family ties and a forbidden romance to exile, grief, and creative awakening—as she travels with a charismatic poet, trades ghost stories by a storm-lashed lake, and shapes her nightmares and losses into the iconic tale of a man-made creature, claiming her voice against the constraints of her era.
