Book excerpt: "My Hideous Progeny" : Mary Shelley, William Godwin, and the Father-Daughter Relationship is a study of the influence of William Godwin on his daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. "My Hideous Progeny" explores Godwin's unsettling psychological legacy - and his generous intellectual gifts - to his daughter.

Mary Shelley's response to her father's influence is unforgettably portrayed in the figure of the father in the pages of her novels.
