Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus

Description

Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is the gripping story of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but reckless young scientist who pushes the limits of nature by bringing a creature to life. Horrified by his creation, Victor abandons it, leaving the being to confront the world alone. Longing for companionship, the Creature instead encounters fear and cruelty, setting in motion a tragic tale of isolation, vengeance, and the dire costs of unchecked ambition. First published anonymously in 1818, Mary Shelley’s masterpiece stands as a cornerstone of both horror and science fiction. More than a Gothic tale, it endures as a timeless reflection on human nature and responsibility.
