Frankenstein

A creation myth that gave birth to the modern science fiction novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley's chilling Gothic tale, lays bare the dark side of science and the horror within us all. Written following a nightmare when Shelley was only eighteen, the book reflects the cultural anxieties of the time, with the Industrial Revolution raising questions about the ethical boundaries of scientific advance and technology. Despite being published in 1818, Shelley's novel remains highly relevant, prompting discussions on the consequences of unchecked technological ambition and societal rejection of the "Other." This seminal work is perfect for fans of the Gothic and science fiction genres.
