On a night two hundred years ago, a girl named Mary searches for the perfect story to write a story of terror: a lightning-fast tale that demonstrates to everyone the ingenuity and acuity of women.
Downstairs his friends discuss the latest advances in science; like trying to bring corpses back to life. Mary continues to reflect on the implications of such a gesture, on the ethical nature of the question, on loneliness and the fear of awakening after death, estranged from ourselves and what surrounds us.
That night marks the birth of a story and a character destined to influence all subsequent literature.
