About this listen
Dundee, 1812. Isabel Baxter awaits the arrival of Mary Godwin, a girl of precocious intellect and grand passions, sent north to cure a mysterious ailment. Nestled in woodland on the banks of the Tay, the Baxter family home seems a perfect place for a troubled girl to recuperate. But The Cottage is a place of secrets, memories . . . and monsters.
We know Mary Shelley as the girl who wrote Frankenstein, but there are great holes in the fabric of her story.
Discover the fascinating tale of Mary Godwin: the mind which birthed Frankenstein's monster.
Years before Frankenstein, this is a story of emerging womanhood and literary intrigue, exploring the many monsters in young Mary Shelley's life. From the bestselling author of Waterstones Scottish Book of the month, the Specimens, Poor Creatures is perfect for fans of Stacey Halls, Sara Sheridan and Ambrose Parry.©2025 Mairi Kidd (P)2025 Bonnier Books UK
