Publisher Description: <p>By combining literary and dramatic narrative with eye-witness accounts of Sasquatch encounters culled from the internet, <em>The Securely Conferred, Vouchsafed Keepsakes of Maery S. </em>reinvents<br> as many versions of the Frankenstein author Mary Shelley as there are <br>definitions of the word "Gothic." In this work, a string of financial, <br>maternal, and familial misfortunes causes Shelley--referred to in this <br>production as Maery S.--to spawn a monstrous creative expression, which <br>takes on its own life and violent history. Maery cannot help but fall <br>in love with her Monster, only to see it "collected" and imprisoned by <br>charitable funding at a mandatory artists' residency.</p>
