A new scientific dawn is ushered in as Dr. Frankenstein welcomes his undead creation to life. Yet his triumph turns to dread as he recognizes that he has unleashed a being with passions and abilities far beyond his power to restrain.
Created on a dare, Mary Shelley's debut novel Frankenstein remains a bedrock forerunner of the science fiction genre and a cautionary tale in a world of accelerating scientific advance.
