具体描述
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is the world's most notorious and widely read Gothic novel. It has also been heralded as both the first modern horror novel and the first science fiction novel. More important than either is the novel's mythical status in society. The rich subtext of Frankenstein and the vast number of readings it can inspire have contributed to the novel's continued success after nearly two hundred years. This edition of Frankenstein uses Mary Shelley's definitive 1831 text and incorporates several critical essays on Frankenstein, discussing its rich symbolism and place in world literature. There is also a valuable bibliography, Mary Shelley's original introduction to the 1831 edition, Percy Shelley's original preface, and more. This is the definitive edition of Frankenstein, perfect for the trade and indispensable for scholarly use. This is first in the affordably priced Millipede Press Gothic Novels series. Mary Shelley was born in London in 1797. Her mother was the polemicist Mary Wollstonecraft, her father the radical philosopher and novelist William Godwin. At age nineteen, she wrote Frankenstein (published in 1818), which was edited and guided by her husband, Percy Shelley. She is also well known for her apocalyptic novel, The Last Man (1826). She died in 1851. Patrick McGrath was born in London. He is the author of Blood and Water and Other Tales, The Grotesque, Spider, Asylum, and other novels. He lives in New York City and London.

很佩服玛丽 雪莱的功力,让我这个即使看的时候每页都有N个生词的人竟然也看感受到了书中人物的喜怒哀乐。 最大的悲剧也许就是你永远不能责怪哪个人,但是事情就这样发生了。The being, for I don't know what to adress it. 他没有要求Frankenstein创造自己,而Frankein...

引言 大约距今九十年之前,一股自西向东而来的狂风正席卷中原大地——它吹落国人头顶的发髻,吹散国人眼前的浓雾,也吹醒国人心底的迷梦。在这狂风骤雨的交响曲之中,有一个最强的音——正是这个音,将我们拉入现代的世界,使这个落后的农业文明初次对现代化有了直观的认识—...
