Isabel Baxter awaits the arrival of Mary Godwin, a girl of precocious intellect and grand passions, sent north to cure an ailment no one understands. Nestled in woodland on the banks of the Tay, the Baxter family estate seems a perfect place for a troubled girl to recuperate. But The Cottage is a place of secrets, memories - and monsters. Haunted by sickness and loss, Mary steps with Isabel into a shared fantasy world of intrigue and desire. As the fiction weaves its web about them, the two girls begin to lose their interest in reality - with far-ranging consequences for the lives of more than themselves. The tale of the birth of Frankenstein has fascinated for centuries. 'Poor Creatures' imagines the birth of Mary Shelley the writer - and the devastating effects on the circle about her.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mairi Kidd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56887401611642,"sku":"9781785309304","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/files\/9781785309304_19b759bf-6db7-4e0b-96fe-90bbd3d3358f.jpg?v=1779902177","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781785309304","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
