"It's curious how Moore has captured elements from the original Frankenstein then alters it by naming the creature Adam then goes further by adding the female cadaver Victor would make the girlfriend. As we read the parallel story which is wacky as heck, it becomes obvious mystery the girl found floating in the Bay is the missing girlfriend. As others have said this is nutty" — 22 hours, 52 min ago

"Truly unusual that an author sets the stage for a story in the present then toggles backward 25 years and remains there for most of it. All we know is that 25 years ago a man confessed to murder. So its logical that the A plot will reveal the truth. Not exactly what I'd call mystery." — Oct 01, 2025 07:02PM

“To truly experience a poem, you need to feel it. A poem is alive, it has a voice. It is a person. Who are they? Why are they? Hearing her words, as she speaks to you, you think and feel certain things. Just as, hearing my words now, you think and feel certain things. Reading poetry is a conversation of feeling between two people. It shouldn’t answer anything, it should only create more questions, like any good conversation. What did she make you feel? That’s what I wanted you to examine.”
