To celebrate the opening of Haifaa al-Mansour’s new biopic on Mary Shelley, I got to write about Mary Shelley for the wonderful Shondaland! Click here for the piece.

    The freak weather occurrence was due to a volcano in Indonesia that caused the ‘summer that never was’ in Europe. I teach this at school and talk about Shelley.
