"I wanted to write a gothic story because it's not generally associated with Latin American writers. There is an almost cliché association with magic realism but we are capable of writing more than that. . . ."

🩸Victorian disaster men🩸 -part 3!! Had to design Adam (the creature) for this one. Can’t wait to draw him some more!
“Adam and Hyde would absolutely get along, something neither Jekyll nor Frankenstein approves of but they are powerless to stop it happening. And Hyde would probably do a better job of building a future Eve, something Victor would get very upset at.”

🩸Victorian disaster men🩸 -part 2, this time courtesy of tumblr:
“I might remember wrong, but didn't Victor never finish his degree? That is something Dr Jekyll could absolutely hold over him. Alternatively, Frankenstein and Hyde drinking together, one out of stress one out of malice.”

Then to where the house where #MaryShelley wrote #Frankenstein would have been, had the Victorians not pulled it down to build an extension to the Pump Room. It’s where the signboards are on the right. #GothicLiterature #VictorianArchitecture

(Where the noticeboards are on the right of the shot.)

‘I learned to recognise the thorough and primitive duality of man; I saw that, of the two natures that contended in the field of my consciousness, even if I could rightly be said to be either, it was only because I was radically both.’
- Robert Louis Stevenson, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde

It is time.
