Description

Conceived as a part of a literary game among friends in 1816, Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is these days considered a classic piece of 19th century literature. The story begins with the journey of an adventurer, Robert Walton, who saves the life of a man on the North Pole. That man, Victor Frankenstein, tells Walton about his experiments with the creation of life and how he ended up on the North Pole. Through this simple plot device, Shelley was once in a position to maintain serious real-world issues like acceptance, tolerance, and understanding, in addition to the universal human need for companionship and love. The novel, of course, inspired a host of films, from the 1931 classic starring Boris Karloff to Andy Warhol’s Frankenstein, and more recently, a series of novels by Dean Koontz. This version, although moderately abridged, retains much of the original dialogue and remains true to Shelley’s brilliant vision.
