Father of the bride of Frankenstein

Enlarge text Shrink text

"In 1818, Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein, creating the iconic concept, and incidentally creating modern science fiction. In 1935, Elsa Lanchester married the monster. And now, Daniel M. Kimmel updates the myth, and tells us the tale from the point of view of the most important character: the Father of the Bride of Frankenstein. This is not Ms. Shelley's monster, but (dare we say it?) a dazzling urbanite, literate and thoughtful... and Jewish? Science has always outrun the guidelines of ethics. It's not unthinkable that interspecies relationships will be the next big question. And with those relationships will come a father's love for his daughter, and that father's fears for his bankbook when his doting daughter plans the most outrageous of weddings. Making your daughter happy can be a wild ride when her fiance is being called subhuman, sued because of his very existence, and trying to keep a good Jewish home. Also includes the bonus, rarely seen short story "Cinema Purgatorio." " --Back cover.
