Victor Frankenstein gets exactly what his curiosity demanded, and the moment the creature opens its eyes he runs from it. Mary Shelley's Gothic novel begins there and follows both maker and creation through everything that follows.
The book sets the hunger for knowledge against responsibility for what knowledge produces, and it gives the creature enough voice that sympathy keeps shifting between the two. Told largely through letters and recollection, it works as a pursuit story and a moral argument at the same time. This deluxe hardbound edition arrives with a bound-in ribbon marker, gilded page edges and decorated endpapers.
Before you add it to the cart:
