The essence of the story remains the same. Frankenstein has thrilled and engrossed readers for two centuries. Written by Mary Shelley, it is a story that she intended would 'curdle the blood and quicken the beatings of the heart.' The tale is a superb blend of science fiction, mystery, and thriller. Victor Frankenstein, driven by the mad dream of creating his own creature, experiments with alchemy and science to build a monster stitched together from dead remains. Once the creature becomes a living, breathing, articulate entity, it turns on its maker, and the novel darkens into tragedy. The force of the elegant prose, the grotesque, surreal imagery, and the multi-layered themes in the novel quickly sweep the reader along. Although first published in 1818, Shelley's masterpiece still maintains a strong grip on the imagination and has inspired numerous horror movies, television, and stage adaptations.
