Frankenstein

This edition includes an introduction by Jeanette Winterson and a cultural history of Frankenstein's monster. Victor Frankenstein's story is one of ambition, murder and revenge. As a young scientist he pushed moral boundaries in order to cross the final frontier and create life. But his creation is a monster stitched together from grave-robbed body parts who has no place in the world, and his life can only lead to tragedy. Written when she was only 19, Shelley's gothic tale is one of the greatest horror stories ever published.
