Victor Frankenstein. He created a monster, out of graveyard remains and electricity. Now the monster, shunned by the humans, is out for revenge on his creator.
Written at the time where electricity was new, Mary Shelley puts her fears of the new inventions into a tear-jerking novel.

Those who love deep meanings. Those who love to explore language and find hidden idea, themes and thoughts. I wouldn't say this book was for idle reading.

How I could pick out a paragraph or two, and have a ton of new ideas from it within 5 minutes. There is so much undrlying depth to this work.

How the language dragged everything out. It was good, but I don't understand how it took so long to say one thing.

Excited. All the new things and insights as to Shelleys world.

Is incredible. For a woman of her time, and status a book of this quality could never have been expected. She put everything she had into it. Including herself.

It is a classic that deserves to be a classic.
