Why do creative, talented men give life to abominations? The Diary of
Victor Frankenstein: The Compulsive Reading of a Secret Life is both an
exploration and an example of the phenomenon. A glossy art book, written by
Roscoe Cooper and illustrated by Timothy Basil Ering, it purports to be the
fictional young doctor’s private journal. But why do it? Published by Dorling
Kindersley, £14.99/$19.95, ISBN 0751371262.
