More than 200 years since its initial publication, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein remains a gothic masterpiece that has endured the test of time. As a classic work of horror, it blurs the distinction between man and monster. "If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear." These words have captivated readers for centuries, as they delve into the story of Victor Frankenstein and the creature he brought to life.
On a surface level, the novel is filled with tension and a steadily escalating sense of dread. However, it also delves deeper, shedding light on the triumphs and tragedies of the human condition. It depicts a scientist who crosses ethical boundaries and a creature tormented by its isolation in a world where it does not belong. Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is a novel of intense, almost hallucinatory, nature, marking it as one of the most vivid expressions of the Romantic imagination.
This edition features an Introduction by Douglas Clegg and an Afterword by Harold Bloom.
