Meer over het boek

The novel explores the consequences of unchecked ambition and the quest for knowledge through Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist who creates a sentient being. Originating from a dream during a competition with literary figures like Lord Byron, the story delves into themes of creation, responsibility, and isolation. Set against the backdrop of Shelley’s travels in Europe, particularly near Frankenstein Castle, it reflects her fascination with galvanism and the darker aspects of human nature. The 1818 edition presents an unfiltered view of these profound themes.
