The legacy of Frankenstein's monster collides with the
sociopolitical tensions of the present-day United States. Mary
Shelley's Frankenstein beseeched his creator for love and
companionship, but in 2017, the monster has long discarded any
notions of peace or inclusion. He has become the Destroyer, his
only goal to eliminate the scourge of humanity from the planet. In
this goal, he initially finds a willing partner in Dr. Baker, a
descendant of the Frankenstein family who has lost her teenage son
after an encounter with the police. While two scientists, Percy and
Byron, initially believe they're brought to protect Dr. Baker from
the monster, they soon realize they may have to protect the world
from the monster and Dr. Baker's wrath. Written by lauded novelist
Victor LaValle (The Devil In Silver, The Ballad of Black Tom),
Destroyer is a harrowing tale exploring the legacies of love, loss,
and vengeance placed firmly in the tense atmosphere and current
events of the modern-day United States.
The Cultural Landscape Report (CLR) for Denali National Park and
Preserve provides an in depth history and analysis of the landscape
as well as guidance for treatment.
This report for Glen Haven consists of four parts: site history,
existing conditions, analysis, and treatment guidelines. The site
history and existing conditions sections document in narrative and
graphic form the physical evolution of the landscape from the
mid-nineteenth century to the present. The analysis section
provides a concise discussion of the property's historic
significance according to the National Register criteria, and an
evaluation of the landscape characteristics and associated features
that contribute to that significance. The analysis incorporates
concepts from National Register Bulletin 30: Guidelines for
Evaluating and Documenting Rural Historic Landscapes. All
preservation, restoration, rehabilitation, or reconstruction
treatment recommendations conform to the Secretary of the
Interior's Standards for Historic Preservation, and the Guidelines
for the Treatment of Historic Landscapes.
