Penguin Select Classics: Frankenstein
“Nothing is so painful to the human mind as great and sudden change.”
The world of Frankenstein explores the depths of human nature and the consequences of great and sudden change.
Victor Frankenstein, a Swiss student of natural science breathes life into a creature made from stolen body parts. Initially seeking love and companionship, the monstrous creation instead incites revulsion in all who encounter it.
Plagued by loneliness and despair, the creature turns against its creator, leading to a devastating climax that claims lives.
Frankenstein serves as a cautionary tale, warning against the perils of scientific and creative ambition, the corrupting influence of unchecked progress, and the dangers of knowledge without true understanding.
