Product Information

If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear! This edition is also available in a beautiful hardcover (ISBN 9781954839052)The idea of a reanimated corpse was famously conceived by an 18 year old Mary Shelley on holiday with her future husband Percy Bysshe Shelley and Lord Byron near Lake Geneva, Switzerland. The three were tasked with writing a ghost story, which resulted in one of the most famous novels to come from the 19th century. Published anonymously in a three volume series, Frankenstein instantly set the standard for a true literary horror and its themes lead many to believe it was the first true science fiction novel. In 1831 and after much pressure, Mary Shelley revised the text to be more fitting to contemporary standards. Presented here by Readers Library Classics is the original 1818 text of Frankenstein. Young scientist Victor Frankenstein, griefstricken over the death of his mother, sets out in a series of laboratory experiments testing the ability to create life from nonliving matter. Soon, his experiments progress further until he creates a humanoid creature eight feet tall. But as Frankenstein soon discovers, a successful experiment does not always equal a positive outcome. | Mary Shelley Frankenstein the Original 1818 Text (Reader's Library Classics)
