Readers will be surprised to read this nineteenth century horror story, because the English woman Mary W. Shelley (1797 1851) did not write this book as it is shown in the many motion pictures that were made of it. She published this gothic tale, which many scholars see Frankenstein groups reviews for the same story even when they are from different editions and in the case of Frankenstein the worst is that there are two similar but not identical versions. The first is the 1818 uncensored edition by e artnow; the other is the Classics Frankenstein Mary Shelley's timeless classic, Frankenstein, stands as a haunting testament to the human pursuit of knowledge and the consequences that accompany unchecked ambition. With its gripping narrative and profound exploration of moral and existential themes, this Gothic Frankenstein 2018 marks the 200th anniversary of the publication of Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN; OR, THE MODERN PROMETHEUS. While I did not read or in this case listen to the novel because of the anniversary, it does seem appropriate that I picked this time to read what is generally Frankenstein I love the look of the Penguin Classics, the fabric hard cover looks beautiful!

“Frankenstein has done than any other story to define the anxieties of modern life. But it’s what it tells us about compassion that we need now than ever.”, by Rebecca Lawrence (BBC Culture June 13, 2018)If you think that because you have watched the movie adaptations you can skip this book, then you don’t know what you are missing.The movie obscured Shelley’s intentions.This is not a horror book.It’s a drama at its finest.The writing is fascinating!And if you add the audiobook narrated by Dan Stevens you will be transported to the era and be totally involved in the emotional rollercoaster.The writing is complex and vivid and expresses the anguish of both monster and creator.I thought the story was exceptionally well told and the writing definitely brought it to life.What I enjoyed the most is that we have the monster’s perspective.What an incredible imagination!The author was 18 years old and this book was written in 1818, so take that into consideration.What a great read! Frankenstein *Warning: This review contains SPOILERS.* I hated this book in high school and never imagined I'd reread it voluntarily, but here we are. And I actually didn't hate it this time! Funny how these things work out, huh? I've read some articles about this book as Frankenstein Frankenstein; or The Modern Prometheus, first published in 1818, is well deserved classic of science fiction and horror. Mary Shelley's work, much like the similarly influential Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson (see my review of that here on Frankenstein I never had the chance to read the Frankenstein book and only knew the original movie. This is definitely far from the movie and much better! This is the first book I’ve ever read where some scenes actually make me a little uneasy. For how old this book is, Barnes & Noble Frankenstein Es una edición bonita, de buena calidad Frankenstein
