Product details

The greatest horror novel of all time. "If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear." After years of experimentation, the ambitious researcher Victor Frankenstein has succeeded in creating an artificial human. However, the result of his alchemical attempts shakes him to his core, and horrified, he abandons the creature to its fate. As it desperately seeks closeness and acceptance, it leaves chaos and devastation in its wake. With her debut work, 19-year-old Mary Shelley already addressed fundamental questions in 1818 that seem more relevant today than ever in the age of artificial intelligence, algorithms, and genetic engineering. • The cornerstone of horror novels • Man and his creation: The Frankenstein myth is more relevant than ever • New film adaptation in 2025 by Guillermo del Toro featuring Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, and Mia Goth • Now available in the world's most famous classic series.
