Frankenstein: The 1818 Text
“Gordon’s framing is the real standout of the anniversary edition (…) Highly recommended.”—N. K. Jemisin, The New York Times Book Review“Frankenstein is as efficient and resonant a reference today as it was in 1818. . . In this bicentennial year, much will be written about Frankenstein, its adaptations, and whether there exists a definitive or superior version of the novel. . . The 1818 Text is reflective of the thrill and nervous energy that ushered in a new era of science and society. . . But part of what makes it a little unsettling is what makes it so interesting: The chance to watch a 200-year-old novel develop. In a story that's reflected so much of the last two hundred years, and centers so much on choices, storytelling, and the potential for change, it only makes sense that Frankenstein reflects changes within its own creator”—Genevieve Valentine, NPR

Frankenstein
In 1816, te midden van schrijversvrienden in Italië, schreef de negentienjarige Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley het horrorverhaal dat zou uitgroeien tot de grondsteen van de sciencefiction en een van de bekendste romans aller tijden: Frankenstein. Dit is het verhaal van de excentrieke wetenschapper Victor Frankenstein, die bezeten is van de wens om een levend wezen te scheppen. Uiteindelijk slaagt hij daar in, maar de creatie wil vervolgens zijn maker - en alles waar deze waarde aan hecht - vernietigen.

Frankenstein
Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but restless scientist, creates life by stitching together parts of different bodies. Driven by ambition and the desire to conquer nature, he abandons his creation before he can truly understand what it means to be responsible for a living being. The creature, rejected by everyone it encounters, learns language and emotion in isolation and searches for connection. But society's fear turns curiosity into cruelty, and Victor's guilt and denial only deepen the tragedy. As the creature's suffering grows into vengeance, the novel becomes a dark exploration of ambition, responsibility, and the consequences of playing God-where love, loneliness, and moral failure collide with devastating force.Frankenstein is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1818.
