About this book
Creation, neglect, and responsibility
Victor Frankenstein succeeds in making a living being, then recoils from what he has made. The creature’s search for care and belonging becomes inseparable from Victor’s fear and guilt. Told through layered accounts, Shelley’s novel asks what a creator owes to a life he cannot control.
It is often remembered as a horror story, yet its most persistent questions concern isolation, prejudice, ambition, and responsibility. Readers who know only the popular image of the monster may be surprised by how much space the creature has to speak for himself. The external link is the English book page at Project Gutenberg.
