具体描述
'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 Mary Shelley this haunting night specter. By morning, it had become the germ of her Romantic masterpiece, "Frankenstein." Written in 1816 when she was only 19, 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.

前言中还在说这本小说的主旨是揭示剥削阶级剥削被剥削阶级的残酷现实和被剥削阶级的勇敢反抗，让人不禁想，现在这是什么年代，何必呢。 我喜欢的译文版呀，新出版的怎么也会这样呢，又不是那个【最高指示】的年代了，真的何必呢。 弗兰肯斯坦在看到自己造出的怪物为害人类以后...
