Mary Shelley's seminal novel of the scientist whose creation becomes a monster

This edition is the original 1818 text, which preserves the hard-hitting and politically charged aspects of Shelley's original writing, as well as her unflinching wit and strong female voice. This edition also includes a new introduction and suggestions for further reading by author and Shelley expert Charlotte Gordon, literary excerpts and reviews selected by Gordon and a chronology and essay by preeminent Shelley scholar Charles E. Robinson.

El monstre és, en principi, una criatura tendra i generosa, però el rebuig el transforma i comença a omplir de desgràcies la vida del seu creador. Frankenstein és una història plena d'horror i de misteri, de generositat i de tendresa, a cavall de la novel·la gòtica i el relat filosòfic. ...
