Frankenstein – Mary Shelley

I had heard and listened about Frankenstein so much that I thought I had read the book for a long time but thought I had forgotten. And I know there are many people like me out there. For this reason, I read it with great enthusiasm, and I was not surprised to see how irrelevant it was with what I have in my mind. If you’re not content with the things you’ve heard, you have to read this. You’ll love Frankenstein with all your heart.

You will ponder a lot about the place of man in the universe, its interaction with nature and how it changes it, and the consequences of this change. You’ll love this a lot. Enjoy!

Frankenstein

‘Never did I behold a vision so horrible as his face, of such loathsome, yet appalling hideousness’
A twisted, upside-down creation myth, Mary Shelley’s chilling Gothic tale lays bare the dark side of science, and the horror within us all. It tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, who plunders graveyards to create a new being from the bodies of the dead – but whose botched creature causes nothing but murder and destruction. Written after a nightmare when its author was only eighteen, Frankenstein gave birth to the modern science fiction novel.
