Book and chemise housed in publisher's sturdy charcoal cloth slipcase. When Barry Moser began what he came to consider his greatest book, his first instinct was to depict Frankenstein's monster as a metaphor for the horrors unleashed by the modern age, complete with atomic bomb imagery. Realizing that a timeless book had to be less topical, he took his cue instead from the scene in which the monster rescues a young woman from drowning. He is promptly shot by her boyfriend for no better reason than being large and yellow, and Moser later wrote: "In this scene I discovered a monster I know on a first-name basis. His name is Bigotry. His name is Hate. His name is Racism. Ignorance. Intolerance. My family was real friendly with him, and so was I growing up in Tennessee in the '40s and '50s. He wore a white sheet and burned crosses." Most of the book's wood engravings are printed in black and white, but the second volume, in which the monster tells his own story, contains a sequence of 8 color prints partial closeups of the monster's face, as though he were being seen in the dim light of the fire shared by himself and his creator. "Warm colors, these," wrote Moser, "behind black, a metaphor of my sympathy with the monster. A ministration in my struggle as a recovering racist.".
