Krátky popis
Frankenstein is the classic gothic horror novel which has thrilled
and engrossed readers for two centuries. Written by Mary Shelley,
it is a story which she intended would ‘curdle the blood and
quicken the beatings of the heart.’ The tale is a superb blend of
science fiction, mystery and thriller. Victor Frankenstein driven
by the mad dream of creating his own creature, experiments with
alchemy and science to build a monster stitched together from dead
remains. Once the creature becomes a living breathing articulate
entity, it turns on its maker and the novel darkens into tragedy.
The reader is very quickly swept along by the force of the elegant
prose, the grotesque, surreal imagery, and the multi-layered themes
in the novel. Although first published in 1818, Shelley’s
masterpiece still maintains a strong grip on the imagination and
has been the inspiration for numerous horror movies, television and
stage adaptations. This edition uses the 1831 version of the text.
This edition includes a new afterword by Dr Sally Minogue
