An article I just came across via Arts&Letters Daily:

https://newrepublic.com/article/134271/frankensteins-monster-became-human

I didn't read the bits about the novel but the first half of the essay is relevant to this project. Lac Leman, it seems, is the preferred name for Lake Geneva.

Best,

Thank you Betty! :)

Edit: If the final chapter is claimed today, I'll go ahead and mess with Section 03 and see if I can fix the clipping.

Great. Back to Readers Found. :)
In the mind, or consciousness of the Earth this flower first lay latent as a dream. Perhaps, in her consciousness, it nested as that which in us corresponds to a little thought.--A.Blackwood

Ha! Not so fast Betty B!

3:22.2 after "some faint image" the words "fill the breast" are missing.

And, as you get to wrap up the project in Section 11, add "End of History of a Six Weeks' Tour, by Percy Bysshe Shelley and Mary Shelley" at the end. (They used to write such long poems in those days, I guess you were all tuckered out when you got to the end).
