Collector's Edition Laminated Hardback with Jacket
A driven scientist pushes the boundaries of nature, determined to create life from death. Victor Frankenstein succeeds, but his creation-a living, intelligent being-quickly becomes a nightmare. Faced with rejection and isolation, the creature hunts down his creator, seeking revenge for the life he's been given. What follows is a tense, relentless pursuit that questions the limits of ambition and responsibility.
Frankenstein is a groundbreaking work that helped shape both the science fiction and horror genres. Written in the early 19th century, it reflects the anxieties of the Industrial Revolution and the growing power of science, capturing the fear of human creations spiraling out of control. Mary Shelley's novel is also a pioneering exploration of ethical questions about scientific responsibility, the nature of humanity, and the consequences of unchecked ambition. Its influence continues to resonate in modern discussions of technology, artificial intelligence, and bioethics.
