"I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life and stir with an uneasy, half-vital motion." A summer evening's ghost stories, lonely insomnia in a moonlit Alpine's room, and a runaway imagination--fired by philosophical discussions with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley about science, galvanism, and the origins of life--conspired to produce for Marry Shelley this haunting night specter. By morning, it had become the germ of her Romantic masterpiece, Frankenstein .
Written in 1816 when she was only nineteen, Mary Shelley's novel of "The Modern Prometheus" chillingly dramatized the dangerous potential of life begotten upon a laboratory table. A frightening creation myth for our own time, Frankenstein remains one of the greatest horror stories ever written and is an undisputed classic of its kind.

评分一个完美的人，应该始终保持平静、沉着的心绪，任何时候都不该让热情冲动或一时的欲念扰乱心地的安宁。我想，探求知识时也不应该偏离这一准则。如果一个人从事的研究工作，竟会削弱自己对别人的爱，败坏自己的生活情趣，无意去领受那种不掺杂任何杂质的纯朴的人生乐趣，那么，...
评分Shelley's story shows interesting connection between creator and its creation. The monster and Frankenstein share similar character in some aspects: both of them are curious and learn very fast. They are both hesitant, eager for love, and bear great grief....
