Boook review - "Donovan's Brain" by Curt Siodmak (1942)

 Siodmak's riff on Frankenstein - a doctor doing experiments in the desert comes caross a dying millionaire, saves his brain, the brain takes him over. So it's a battle for possession really and it works in novel format because we're hearing the guy's thoughts and Donovan's thoughts. Told in diary form.

It's a lot of fun, gripping to read.
