A Monster's Notes

“A remarkable creation, a baroque opera of grief, laced with lines of haunting beauty and profundity.” —The Washington Post Now in paperback, the bold, genre-defying book that asked: What if Mary Shelley had not invented Frankenstein's monster at all but had met him when she was a girl of eight, sitting by her mother's grave, and he came to her unbidden? In a riveting mix of fact and poetic license, Laurie Sheck gives us the "monster" in his own words: recalling how he was "made" and how Victor Frankenstein abandoned him; pondering the tragic tale of the Shelleys and the intertwining of his life with Mary's (whose fictionalized letters salt the narrative, along with those of her nineteenth-century intimates); taking notes on all aspects of human striving--from Gertrude Stein to robotics to the Northern explorers whose lonely quest mirrors his own--as he tries to understand the strange race that made yet shuns him, and to find his own freedom of mind.

De New-York ˆ Brest en sept heures

By: AndrŽ LAURIE

Raymond Frézols, jeune ingénieur, propose au « roi du pétrole » de Pensylvanie, Ebenezer Curtiss, un moyen d'envoyer son pétrole en Europe via un tube de conduite sous-marin. Le projet est rapidement mis en route, mais l'industriel possède des ennemis. Le jeune ingénieur est, quant à lui, confronté aux lois de la physique... ainsi qu'à Madge, la fille d'Ebenezer... et à son passé.De New-York à Brest en sept heures, c'est le roman d'aventures poussé jusqu'à son extrême expression, à travers les péripéties les plus multipliées et une succession de surprises extraordinaires, même pour les lecteurs habitués à la merveilleuse imagination d'André Laurie. L'auteur de tant de récits attachants s'est surpassé dans ce merveilleux roman, que nous qualifierions volontiers de féerie scientifique, si la science ne nous avait appris à ne pas douter d'elle.Jean-François Paschal Grousset, né le 7 avril 1844 à Corte, et décédé le 9 avril 1909 à Paris, est un journaliste et un écrivain connu sont le nom d'André Laurie.
