Self-Recognition and Growing Despair

Joey Lawrence is saying, “Whoah,” and Sweet Sweet Sweetie brings the glow as Frankie rolls on with his show.

This reading of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein has been sleepified as much as possible, but there are unavoidable references to the Big Farm, religion, and mental health. These topics may not be sleepy for all listeners.
