Reimagining Frankenstein's Story

A new novel, Chicano Frankenstein, subverts the classic Frankensteins' narrative. It introduces a world where individuals willing to donate their whole bodies can be reanimated by the government into undead workers. This reanimated labor force is a reflection of the challenges faced by immigrants in the current society, shedding light on discriminatory practices. The novel forces readers to question who the real monster is, challenging perceptions about immigration and labor in a thought-provoking manner.
