APOLLO CLASSICS
In Mary Shelley's masterpiece, "Frankenstein," readers are drawn into the haunting tale of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but obsessed young scientist who dares to play God. Driven by an insatiable thirst for knowledge, Victor defies the natural order to create life from death, only to be horrified by the monstrous being he brings into existence. As the creature, abandoned and shunned by its creator and society, goes on a vengeful quest for acceptance and understanding, "Frankenstein" digs deep into themes of ambition, isolation, and the ethical limits of scientific exploration.
Through a story rich in Gothic horror and philosophical questions, Shelley examines the dualities of creator and creation, beauty and monstrosity, and the consequences of unchecked human ambition.
This timeless novel, first published in 1818, continues to intrigue and challenge readers, prompting them to reflect on the boundaries of human endeavor and the moral responsibilities that come with the power to create. "Frankenstein" remains a pivotal work that speaks to the timeless human quest for knowledge and the implications of our actions.
