I promise myself Modern

From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein

In an undefined year, before the common era, Prometheus promised, and he delivered. And he was punished for it. In 17-, above the village of Chamounix, Switzerland, the Creature tells his story to his creator. In 1818, in England, Mary Shelley published "Frankenstein: The Modern Prometheus". In 1993, San Francisco, Susan Stryker writes "My Words to Victor Frankenstein above the Village of Chamounix - Performing Transgender Rage". In 2025, Portugal, a trans artist sees herself as part of all this.
