{"product_id":"m-is-for-monster-40478","title":"M is for Monster","description":"\u003cp\u003eM Is for Monster by Talia Dutton is a haunting and heartfelt graphic novel that reimagines the Frankenstein myth through a queer, introspective lens. When scientist Frances Ai resurrects her sister Maura after a tragic accident, the being who awakens-calling herself \"M\"-has no memory of Maura's life and desires to forge her own identity. As Frances attempts to mold M into the sister she lost, M grapples with the weight of others' expectations and the longing to be seen for who she truly is. Set in an eerie, mid-20th-century world rendered in moody teal and black hues, Dutton's debut explores themes of grief, autonomy, and self-discovery with emotional depth and visual elegance. Perfect for readers drawn to gothic tales, LGBTQ+ narratives, and stories about claiming one's voice in the face of loss and control. This book could be paired with other re-tellings along with their originals or it could be paired with Pet by Akwaeke Emezi for themes dealing with visibility and autonomy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43665547296828,"sku":null,"price":22.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/3677\/6508\/files\/13287273482693.jpg?v=1763068636","url":"https:\/\/nssbb.ednet.ns.ca\/products\/m-is-for-monster-40478","provider":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
