About this product

Product Information

"I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life and stir with an uneasy, half-vital motion." A summer evening's ghost stories, lonely insomnia in a moonlit Alpine's room, and a runaway imagination--fired by philosophical discussions with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley about science, galvanism, and the origins of life--conspired to produce for Marry Shelley this haunting night specter. By morning, it had become the germ of her Romantic masterpiece, "Frankenstein". Written in 1816 when she was only nineteen, Mary Shelley's novel of "The Modern Prometheus" chillingly dramatized the dangerous potential of life begotten upon a laboratory table. A frightening creation myth for our own time, "Frankenstein" remains one of the greatest horror stories ever written and is an undisputed classic of its kind. "From the Paperback edition."

  • Frankenstein- Classic Piece

    This text the masterstroke of its sometimes overshadowed author Mary Shelley is an esteemed conflagration of early 19th century themes encompassing morality, science and the spiritual makeup of humanity. Its plot surrounds Victor Frankenstein who seeks the gift of life and forbidden knowledge of Prometheus' gift to man. The carrion monster that he creates is emotionally scarred by the inhuman suffering it endures by human hand and eventually seeks satisfaction in ruining its creator. Descending from a long of line of dramatic tragedies this story no doubt holds true and in no small way does it revolutionize contemporary notions of horror and social ethos. Ranked among such great contemporary works of the time as "A protrait of Dorian Gray", Frankenstein is a must read for all those with an ...
