More Details
A chemistry professor creates a homunculus in a glass jar. Like FRANKENSTEIN, Delblanc's novel similarly illustrates the male drive to self-gender. "In Delblanc's tale, however, Sebastian goes a step further than Victor Frankenstein -- toward the end of the book he himself becomes pregnant, dying while giving birth through a Cesarean section, which he inflicts on himself in the midst of labor pains" (Maria Aline Seabra Ferreira, Maria Ferreira, I Am the Other: Literary Negotiations of Human Cloning, p. 118)
