Description: while the global reality seems to be inverting and scrambling more and more every day, I am working hard to ground myself in my beliefs, in humanity, and in transformative justice. Policing does not keep us safe. Violence does not end violence. Attacking and threatening students with militarized police while self proclaimed nazis are allowed to "peacefully demonstrate" on campus grounds... I think back to my experience as a college student, as a graduate student, and how disempowered I felt in moments of social injustice. I'm so proud of and inspired by the work these students and educators are doing right now. . 'The function of freedom is to free someone else" - Toni Morrison
Description: She wrote Frankenstein at 18 during a stormy week in Switzerland. The rest of the genre is still catching up. Mary Shelley (1797–1851) essentially invented science fiction, explored the ethics of creation and responsibility long before anyone thought those were science topics, and did it all while navigating a life that would have broken most people. This minimalist portrait captures the woman behind the monster. For gothic fiction lovers, Frankenstein fans, literary art collectors, and admirers of writers who changed entire genres before turning 20.
