Frankenstein - Mary Shelley

Descriere Frankenstein - Mary Shelley

This harrowing tale has held readers spellbound ever since it was published almost two centuries ago. This edition features a new Introduction by Clegg and an Afterword by preeminent literary critic Bloom. Revised reissue. \nMore than 200 years after it was first published, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has stood the test of time as a gothic masterpiece--a classic work of horror that blurs the line between man and monster. \nIf I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear. \n \nFor centuries, the story of Victor Frankenstein and the monster he created has held readers spellbound. On the surface, it is a novel of tense and steadily mounting dread. On a more profound level, it illuminates the triumph and tragedy of the human condition in its portrayal of a scientist who oversteps the bounds of conscience, and of a creature tortured by the solitude of a world in which he does not belong. A novel of almost hallucinatory intensity, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein represents one of the most striking flowerings of the Romantic imagination. \n \n \n With an Introduction by Douglas Clegg \n And an Afterword by Harold Bloom\n
