Books by Robert Horton

Robert Horton was born in London in 1956. One of seven children, Robert became quite introverted, especially after the death of his father in 1967. Finding it difficult to communicate, Robert turned his hand to writing poetry as a means of expression and would write poetry when faced with difficult emotions. Roberts writing has become more prolific over the last five years and is now able to write on a variety of subjects in different styles. This book is a snippet of his works, tackling love, insanity, poverty and war. I hope you agree his words are insightful yet poetic. He often says "I am blessed with the desire to be a poet......yet will never truly be"

James Whale's Frankenstein (1931) spawned a phenomenon that has been rooted in world culture for decades. This cinematic Prometheus has generated countless sequels, remakes, rip-offs, and parodies in every media, and this granddaddy of cult movies constantly renews its followers in each generation. Along with an in-depth critical reading of the original 1931 film, this book tracks Frankenstein the monster's heavy cultural tread from Mary Shelley's source novel to today's Internet chat rooms.
