First, he created life. Then he rejected it. Amid the Arctic ice, a ship’s crew witnesses a strange and terrifying sight: a gigantic figure crossing the snow before disappearing into the white horizon. Soon, the sailors spot and rescue a man on the brink of collapse. His name is Victor Frankenstein, and his story reveals the terrible price of an ambition that exceeded all human bounds.
Young, brilliant, and determined to conquer the limits of nature, Frankenstein succeeds in giving life to a body assembled from dead limbs. But triumph soon turns to horror. Unable to face his creation, he abandons it. Rejected by a world that shuns it, the creature seeks answers from its creator. And when its pleas go unanswered, it turns to revenge, drawing Victor into a dark journey filled with loss, guilt, and irreversible consequences.
Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus remains one of the greatest works of Gothic literature and one of the most influential horror novels of all time. This edition is accompanied by the iconic artwork of Bernie Wrightson, considered one of the finest artistic interpretations of the Frankenstein myth.
“One of the darkest creations in English literature, with the power to terrify generations of readers.” – Stephen King
