Musings at Mont Blanc: with Mary Shelley Wollstonecraft - Paperback

by Rosalinda Ruiz Scarfuto (Author)

Musing at Mont Blanc dives into the deep crevices of the European Alps with inspiring glaciers and the rare beauty of two women, 200 years apart, confronting their intimate relationship with the natural world for unexpected outcomes. Mary Shelley Wollstonecraft created Dr. Frankenstein and Rosalinda discovered the unique landscape that inspired the novel, whilst creating her own poetic canvas. How does it feel to follow these women on their paths? Tripping over transcendental colourful mushrooms, contemplating towering pines and entering azure ice caves are a few of the delights. Although, the landscape draws thousands to ski, eat and speed tour three frontiers (France, Italy & Switzerland) in a holiday exalted state, this literary experience is a slow walk; revealing the imagination behind a quest to the heart of the Alps and the soul of Humanity.
