A review by luissantos__
Matilda by Mary Shelley

4.0

This is more a dark/melancholic emotional story that happens to blossom due to incestuous feelings, rather than an erotic/incestuous relationship as people portray. A man that acknowledges his feelings towards his daughter and acts knowing that those feelings are wrong and deserving of punishment. The story is told through the point of view of Matilda, the daughter, and how she deals with this discovery.
I find Mary Shelley to have a really poetical writing style. The way she paints with words, the things inside and outside of what makes us humans.
