And the truth is, I grossed myself out, writing it. I actually went to all these websites where you can apparently buy all these body parts of animals, and some human things too, and serum and cells, for performing experiments. But I really appreciate what you say; that's exactly what I was aiming for, beauty and ugliness at once. Or to put it another way, the dissonance of immoral, evil actions performed by and narrated by an educated, erudite, and eloquent man. Who are the true monsters, and/or, do we the people get the monsters we deserve? That’s about the best compliment I could get for this story. And the truth is, I grossed myself out, writing it.

So horrifying. So beautiful. This story was so ugly and so lovely at the same time. Good work! I had to stop midway through the description of the monster because I wanted to scream. So horrifying.
