The story of Victor Frankenstein and the monstrous creature he
created has held readers spellbound ever since it was published
almost two centuries ago. On the surface, it is a novel of tense
and steadily mounting horror; but on a more profound level, it
offers searching illumination of the human condition in its
portrayal of a scientist who oversteps the bounds of conscience,
and of a monster brought to life in an alien world, ever more
desperately attempting to escape the torture of his solitude. A
novel of hallucinatory intensity, "Frankenstein" represents one of
the most striking flowerings of the Romantic imagination.
