Frankenstein: Or, the Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley
Details
Will the creature you create be the one that kills you?
Young scientist Victor Frankenstein is obsessed with one thing: creating life. But when he succeeds in awakening a Creature assembled from scavenged human corpses, he discovers that the life he has created threatens his own. What ensues is a thrilling tale of two souls locked in a bitter battle for survival. Frankenstein and his Creature each want to live in peace…but only one may have it; the other will have to be destroyed.
Often considered the first modern science fiction story, Mary Shelley’s chilling classic is a powerful story of love and rejection, of ambition and consequences, of human dignity and evil, leaving each of us to wonder at our own powers to fill the world with life and love…or to fill it with death and hate.
