Descrição

An Apple Books Classic edition.

Mary Shelley was just 18 when she had a nightmare vision: “I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life.”

Despite her lack of writing experience, Shelley converted her dream into what is often referred to as the world’s first horror novel, a timeless tale of science gone bad. Frankenstein follows the story of Swiss scientist Victor Frankenstein, who manages to animate a hulking creature referred to as a “monster,” “wretch,” or “fiend.” Shelley’s 1818 classic has become one of the most frequently taught works of fiction, a cultural touchstone for conversations about the dark side of innovation. (Made-up words like Frankenscience andFrankenfood have become shorthand for the products of technological tampering.) More than 200 years after it was published, this novel remains a thought-provoking read that explores timely themes like creators’ responsibilities for the unintended consequences of their inventions.

Excellent writting a bit repeating at times but leaves me no wonder for this book to be a classic.

The dream of Frankenstein suddenly became his curse. In this sad story, we get to see how the life of a happy and bright young man transforms gradually into a pitiful existence. The monster that Victor created was launched in a world that hated him, while all he ever wanted was love. Both suffered so much, and by the end I began to wonder how things ended that way. 10/10

One of the best horror books from the 19th century, hard to believe that Mary Shelley was only 21 years old when her masterpiece was published.
Boring
