Victor Frankenstein, jeune savant, reve de percer le secret de la vie - jusqu'a creer une creature qui le hantera jusqu'a sa perte. Edition reliee Word Cloud Classics du chef-d'oeuvre gothique de Mary Shelley.
The idea for the story came to the author, Mary Shelley, in a dream she had about a scientist who had created life and was horrified by what he had made. This Gothic-style romance is among the first true science fiction novels, if not the first.
A young scientist named Victor Frankenstein, after going through his own near-death experience, decides to play God and create life in the form of a grotesque creature, which turns into a nightmare. Through his experience, he learns that the gift of life is precious, not disposable - a journey and personal transformation that has deeply affected readers for two centuries.
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851) wrote Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus at the age of eighteen, creating one of the most influential and enduring works of Gothic and science fiction literature.
