“My Hideous Progeny”: Creative Monstrosity in the Works of Kiki Smith, Abigail ...

The expression “My Hideous Progeny” is widely known to be taken from Mary Shelley’s preface to the revised edition of Frankenstein (1831), in which she wrote, of the novel itself and of its creature, Frankenstein’s monster.
