A modern (as of 1989) reimagining of Frankenstein, in this case an OB/Gyn who tries to bioengineer his own special genius child. Except the resulting monster is just a caricature bad seed monster I couldn't pity or empathize with, and the doctor is also a monster who I couldn't pity or empathize with. So it's a mostly entertaining story, but only barely worth spending the time to read it.
