Thomas Stroemquist is 21% done with Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus

Wow, this is not an easy read. I was convinced I did read it before, but I'm starting to doubt it. Could I really have made it through this story as a teenager?

Part 3 was even better! Think I'm all in this book now. This story made me think of Lamberto Bava's Demons and Raimi's The Evil Dead, all presented in a well-written and quite low-key (well, considering the story) narrative. Quite the achievement.

Dreamlike and a bit vague - I do like the narrative though

If the people in the meeting I'm holding next read this book, they would not mind me being 15 minutes late. As it is, I'll spend today guessing and waiting.

Placing a character in 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' is of course ingenious. Who would ever know? I think I'm gonna start claiming to be in that picture!

Enjoying this very much despite the not great (Swedish translation?) narrative

I almost can't take this suspense and twists and turns, and then I don't even care for this guy in any way! Now, that is good writing.

Forty in Vegas hurts my teeth! *I* would like to.... not kill him myself, of course, but slap him really hard!

The relocation to LA is genius

Opened the Goodreads app on my iPhone and was met with the wonderful quote: "Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no monsters in it yet?”. Turned out to be close, but I still need reading glasses.
I liked my version too, though.

The magically reappearing laptop in chapter 5 threw me, but I'm all over that now. Really. I'm not the one to dwell. Well...

Either the narrative shaped up or I got so fascinated by the content so I stopped minding. Works just fine now anyway.

Oh no! The narrative voice speaks to me as if I was 4.7 years instead of 47! Can anyone tell me if this is due to the translator? I can't really think I'm going to stand this for a whole book :-(
