Ronovan’s Weekly Haiku Challenge and my Blogging 101 Class are combining for me today.
Mary Shelley is one of my favorite authors and I wanted to honor her and the month of October with this creation!

LOL, I like your haiku! Very clever. Love Mary Shelley, too. She really said some profound things in that story that to this day take my breath away.

I agree. I had to read it in a British Literature class a few years ago. Her descriptions are uncanny using electricity. Interesting!

I found a copy of the book, saved it and then used fotoflexor.com to add the Haiku I wrote. Fun 🙂

That’s a monster of a haiku Colleen (excuse the pun). I’ve not read the book, only seen the various films from the 1970’s. In those days horror films were either about Dracula, Frankenstein or in the Werewolf.

Shelley wrote this book during the year that England had no summer. It was like a mini ice age. She describes the monster through the eyes of her time. Electric current was being use on people in many experiments. The book is excellent!

The year England had no summer. I can think of a few years like that. I have seen snow in June and October and temperatures in the mid twenties in December. I’ll have to put it on my Christmas list, Colleen.
