Mary: Or, the Birth of Frankenstein by Anne Eekhout

5.0

---

One of the best books I have ever read and potentially the most beautifully written. This book is a lyrical dream, delightfully dark and gorgeously gothic. I wanted to devour every sentence. Anne Eekhout’s writing style, translated by Laura Watkinson, is everything I hope my writing might be one day. I am utterly enamoured with her prose.

An instant favourite and an incredible inspiration.
