Content advisory. This book reflects the language and terms of the era in which it was written, which some listeners may find offensive.
Young Victor Frankenstein, driven by a passion for science, discovers the secret of life and brings a creature into being, only to flee in horror from what he has made. Abandoned and alone, the creature learns of the world and of human cruelty, and turns on his maker in a pursuit that leads from the Alps to the Arctic ice. Mary Shelley's 1818 novel, framed by the letters of the explorer Robert Walton, is a founding work of science fiction and Gothic literature. This is the original 1818 text.
