Frankenstein
The original horror story, Mary Shelley's FrankensteinĀ is a classic that sparked a thousand nightmares and redefined what it means to be human. This new special edition hardcover includes sprayed edges, gorgeous endpapers, and brand-new illustrations of key moments from the book.
Obsessed with unlocking the secrets of life, Victor Frankenstein assembles a being from fragments of the dead and shocks it into existence. But the moment his creature opens its watery eyes, triumph turns to horror. Abandoned and alone in a world that recoils from his appearance, the creature learns what it means to be feared, reviled, and denied love-and his loneliness curdles into vengeance.
Blending Gothic terror with piercing psychological insight, Frankenstein is far more than a tale of a monster. It is a haunting meditation on ambition and responsibility, and asks a question that still resonates today: What do we owe to the lives we create?
First published in 1818, Mary Shelley's groundbreaking novel endures as one of literature's most powerful and unsettling myths-a story that continues to electrify the imagination and challenge the conscience.
