Random Bookshelf Reading 86



Random Bookshelf Reading 86

Question:  Today?

Answer:  "Oh!  No mortal could support the horror of that countenance.  A mummy again endued with animation could not be so hideous as that wretch.  I had gazed on him while unfinished;  he was ugly then, but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion, it became a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived." (p.57)

From Frankenstein by Mary Shelly.
