My Monsters:
Legend has it that the poet "Shelley" never forgave his lady "Mary Shelley" for creating Frankenstein's monster. He was a man of certain resolve and quite proud of his own literary presence but a simple story by his wife was more famous and made a lasting presence.
Frankenstein's monster is an archetype - a recurrent theme you would see in "Strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde", Blade Runner, Jurassic Park, Terminator, Endhiran (robot) or Ex-Machina.
All of us are either Frankenstein or the monster. In Shelley's case, he was Frankenstein and the lady was his own monster. The monsters has been the sons, the wives and in my case, like Alexander's, it is the ones I called brothers.
