Working collaboratively by long-distance mail, the artists and contributors made the first-ever poetic adaptation of Frankenstein, turning it into a book-length erasure poem, I or Us. An example of \"found art,\" an erasure poem is created by erasing or blacking out words in an existing text; what is left is the poem. The title reflects the nature of the project: participants have worked as \"I\"'s, each creating their own erased pages, but together worked as an \"us\" to create a collaged \"monster\" of a book. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eErasing Frankenstein presents the original erasure poem I or Us alongside reflections from participants on the experience.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eElizabeth Effinger is an Associate Professor of English at the University of New Brunswick where she teaches British Romanticism with special interests in William Blake, the intersections of Romantic science and literature, the Anthropocene, human-animal studies, pedagogy and the public humanities.
