I'm interested in reading Gothic-ey/creepy texts about the creation of artificial life (in whatever form that takes), beyond Frankenstein. Do you have a favourite or other suggestions? Got the contemporary Frankenstein in Baghdad already, too...

@mpe it's not quite that but I enjoyed Jeanette Winterson's Frankisstein

@mpe E.T.A. Hoffmann's Der Sandmann is a German classic featuring an automaton and other abominations, if you're looking for 19th century entertainment
