Now that I had finished the beauty of the dream vanished and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart ... Obsessed with creating life itself Victor Frankenstein plunders graveyards fot he material to fashion a new being which he shocks into life with electricity. But his botched creature rejected by Frankenstein and denied human companionship sets out to destroy his maker and all that he holds dear. Mary Shelley's chilling Gothic tale was conceived when she was only eighteen living with her lover Percy Shelley near Byron's villa on Lake Geneva. It would become the world's most famous work of horror fiction and remains a devastating exploration of the limits of human creativity. Based on the third edition of 1831 this volume contains all the revisions Mary Shelley made to her story as well as her 1831 introduction and Percy Bysshe Shelley's preface to the first edition. This revised edition includes as appendices a select collation of the texts of 1818 and 1831 together with A Fragment by Lord Byron and Dr John Polidori's 'The Vampyre: A Tale'.
