    It's Alive! Frankenstein at 200 exhibit

    For anyone in the NYC area, there is a new exhibit opening at the Morgan Library and Museum on Oct 12 and running through January 27, 2019 celebrating the 200th anniversary of Shelly's Frankenstein being published.

    Details here: https://www.themorgan.org/exhibitions/frankenstein

    There's an annotated copy of the novel to explore online from the museum here: https://www.themorgan.org/collection/frankenstein

    There's also programs exploring Frankenstein in other mediums (especially film) running over the course of the exhibits run, and there is a calendar of events at the first website I linked.

    There was a little piece about it on the CBS Sunday Morning calendar this morning that made me aware of it, and I know there are a lot of fans of Frankie here, though not sure how many are fans of the original novel as opposed tot he films.

    Toronto's public libraries also have Frankenstein 200 programming running at different locations throughout the month. I plan to check a few things out. I read the original novel in college (for a history class no less!) but think it might be time for a reread. It's great.
