Mary Shelley's Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is a ground-breaking work of gothic fiction and one of the earliest science fiction novels. This original 1818 text tells the haunting tale of Victor Frankenstein, a driven scientist whose unrelenting ambition leads him to create life from death. But his triumph gives rise to horror as his creature, abandoned and shunned, turns to vengeance. Exploring themes of ambition, responsibility, and the consequences of playing God, Frankenstein is a timeless masterpiece that raises profound questions about humanity, morality, and the pursuit of knowledge. A cornerstone of literature, the 1818 text retains its raw power and chilling relevance to this day
