Produktdetaljer
There can be few books as well-known as Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Adapted for stage, film and radio over 100 times, this chilling gothic tale is thought by some to be the very first science-fiction novel. Written in 1816, when Shelley was just 18, her story of a hideous monster of superhuman strength is indebted to contemporary scientific experiments and philosophical debates and is as thought-provoking as it is thrilling. Artist Angela Barrett has contributed eight ominously unsettling illustrations for our edition. Created in series with her remarkable illustrations for Dracula, each one is full of foreboding and set within an elaborate hand-drawn black-and-white border. Nine vignettes represent further aspects of the story, and Barrett’s work is completed with a striking binding design. Award-winning biographer Richard Holmes has contributed an exclusive introduction focusing on the scientific influences and cultural repercussions of the novel.

Very nicely made book with nice artwork inside and a pleasant slip case. Unfortunate is the lacklustre artwork which was used for the cover. Also the book, which is clearly made as a sister book to Dracula has only half as many illustrations as that one and yet costs the same price while also beeing about half as thin. Furthermore the description claims the book is bound in cloth, but it is really bound in buckram, not a bad thing; mind you, but still an error.

One of my four favorite books. FRANKENSTEIN pairs handsomely with my Folio Society’s DRACuLA.
