Intro:
Hello again! It’s me, Hannah. We are back with episode 3 of Frankenstein or, the Modern Prometheus. As you know, we like to share a fun fact or story before we get into the read aloud and this one isn’t for the faint of heart.
Did you know that Percy Shelley’s heart refused to burn? After his death in a boating accident off the coast of Italy, his body was cremated. But his heart had calcified and remained intact (it’s speculated that this was due to a bout with tuberculosis earlier in his life). Mary Shelley took the calcified heart of her beloved husband, and kept it with her for many years. It was even found in her possession when the died![1] Creepy! Devoted, but still, creepy.
With that being said, let’s get to it. Sit back, relax, and I hope you enjoy.
Outro:
End of episode 3. Thanks again for tuning in! Join us next week where Georgia regales us with the woe’s of this wretched monster…. Until then….
