Frankenstein

Frankenstein is the story of a scientist who, with parts of the dead stolen from cemeteries and burial chambers, gives life to a semi-human creature. The result: a monster that society accused of lacking the "divine breath". This spawn, eager to accept, after suffering the rejection of everyone, including its creator, seeks to do the maximum possible damage to whoever conceived it. Mary Shelley occupies a prominent place among horror novelists because her masterpiece has bequeathed a being to popular mythology, whose name has been designated by readers since the author did not impose any on the monster. Frankenstein is a novel rich in dramatic matrices, intensified by Shelley's masterful ability to shape this macabre and terrifying Gothic fantasy unsurpassed.- Translation of the back cover
