About the Story

Victor Frankenstein succeeds in bringing a living being into the world, then abandons the creature he has made. The consequences unfold through a tragic pursuit across Europe and the Arctic.

Mary Shelley’s novel is both a Gothic drama and a searching meditation on ambition, responsibility, isolation, and scientific power. Its questions about creators and their creations still feel urgent today.
