In the depths of a fateful night, a spark ignites a flame that forever alters the course of human history in Mary Shelley’s groundbreaking novel, Frankenstein. As the ambitious young scientist Victor Frankenstein dares to challenge the very boundaries of life and death, he unwittingly unleashes a creation that transcends the limits of science and spirals into a haunting tale of horror, obsession, and remorse.In his quest for power and understanding, Frankenstein fashions a being whose very existence tests the fragile balance between genius and madness, love and despair. As the tormented creature grapples with its own humanity and the desire for acceptance, it becomes increasingly consumed by rage and vengeance, threatening to destroy the very lives of those who brought it into existence.Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is a chilling exploration of the human condition, the consequences of playing God, and the unbreakable bond between creator and creation. This enduring tale of ambition, morality, and responsibility has captivated the hearts and minds of readers for generations, as it poses the eternal question: what does it truly mean to be human?Step into the shadowy world of Frankenstein, where science and morality collide, and prepare to be confronted by the darkest corners of the human soul.
