It's About Choosing To Become A Monster: Michael Grant's "MONSTER"

from Novel Ideas · host The Novel Ideas Podcast

I find it hard to deny my own capacity to be monstrous. Push me far enough and I don't need claws to shred, fists to bruise, or powers to destroy. Life is worth enough to protect at all costs. My humanity? Well, there lies the question. Do monsters lack humanity? Humans are surprising, are we not? It seems childish to consider what we wouldn't do to keep ourselves alive, as long as your morals and ethics are guiding you. Shade Darby, Dekka Talent, and Cruz Rojas are just a few characters from today's episode asking what makes a monster, and what do we do with the power it affords us? I hope you enjoy. BYYEEE!!!!
