Mary Shelley does an excellent job of communicating the shifting emotions of characters; coloring their horrors and delights in great detail. I was taken off-guard by the intelligent communication of the monster, how quickly it seemed he educated himself in the ways of humanity through observation. The story was a mixture of dreadful events and hopeful dreams and gestures of both hate and love--all ultimately shattered by a self-made monster. After such a prolonged chase, the ending seemed abrupt for my taste. However, I find this abrupt closure to be common among many older fairytales. Overall, I enjoyed the book very much. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss8.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_275638127" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_275638127"> </span> </span><!-- reviewVoteInfo --><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_275638127" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_275638127" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_275638127"> </span></span></span> <!-- reviewMods --><span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/REGoodrich" target="_top">REGoodrich</a> | Nov 21, 2024 | <a href="/review/275638127"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> <!-- controlItems --></div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_275410215" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/8294" data-workid="8294" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0141439475.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0141439475.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0141439475.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>This LATW production benefitted immensely by <i>Stacy Keach's</i> gravely reading of the monster. It refrained from what many other productions have done in aping the cinematic incarnations of an ill spoken monster and a dilemma of science <i>going too far</i>, instead taking from the book the well spoken creation struggling with his own existence, with loneliness and rejection, and a creator who turns against him. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss6.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_275410215" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_275410215"> </span> </span><!-- reviewVoteInfo --><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_275410215" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_275410215" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_275410215"> </span></span></span> <!-- reviewMods --><span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/A.Godhelm" target="_top">A.Godhelm</a> | Nov 17, 2024 | <a href="/review/275410215"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> <!-- controlItems --></div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_275165307" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/8294" data-workid="8294" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0141439475.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0141439475.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0141439475.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>another book that surprised me.

Completely different from the film that I remember and the audible version with the narration by Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey) was an added bonus.</b> <br><br>It’s difficult to believe that this gothic fiction story was written in 1818 by Mary Shelley when she was only eighteen Years old and while the writing style is formal and literary the story is so engaging and thought provoking and after a few pages I was totally absorbed with the atmosphere and the Tale of the monster. <br><br><i> At once a Gothic thriller, a passionate romance, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of science. </i> <br><br>I had a copy of this book sitting on my real life shelf for years and never felt drawn to it as I had seen Frankenstein Movies on Tv and felt it was pointless at this stage reading the book as I knew the story and only when I came across an audible version narrated by Dan Stevens did I feel a pull towards this classic. I read and listened to this one and was totally suprised by how much I Enjoyed this Novel. <br><br>What an imagination this eighteen year old girl had in the beginning of the 1800s, the setting and the characters are so brilliantly depicted and you feel like you are part of the story as you follow follow Frankenstein on his travels. It’s dark and atmospheric and perfect November reading. <br><br>I love when a book like this surprises me and while I had to suspend disbelief a little with some elements of the story and the happenings, it was worth it for the entertainment and reward I got from this novel.<br><br><b> A memorable and thought provoking read and a book that keeps it’s pride of place on my real life bookshelf <b> <br><br>I think readers who have enjoyed books like [b:The Woman in White|5890|The Woman in White|Wilkie Collins|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1295661017l/5890._SY75_.jpg|1303710] might well enjoy this one too.</b></b> <span class="rating">( <img

Hundreds of movies, adaptations, and monster masks later, its reputation remains so lively that the title has become its own word in the English language. Victor Frankenstein, a scientist, discovers the secret of reanimating the dead. After he rejects his hideous creation, not even the farthest poles of the earth will keep his bitter monster from seeking an inhuman revenge. Inspired by a uniquely Romantic view of science’s possibilities, Shelley’s masterpiece ultimately wrestles with the hidden shadows of the human mind.<br><br>About the author:<br><br>Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley was born in London in 1797, the daughter of well-known intellectuals. She married the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley in 1816 and spent much of her adulthood in continental Europe, surrounded by her friends in the English Romantic Movement. Her tumultuous life included the loss of three children in infancy and her husband’s death by drowning in 1822. Nevertheless, her contributions to English literature continue to fascinate and inspire readers and artists alike.</div><img style="float:left;" src='https://image.librarything.com/pics/transdot.gif' height='12px' width='1px' alt=''></div></div> <!-- fwikiItem --><div class='fwikiItem divdescription'><div class='fwikiItemText fwikiItemTextLong fwikiItemTextUnknownUser'><div class="fwikiAtomicValue" style="min-height:12px;" >Three narratives in one, all of them exploring the unknown.
