Synopsis "Frankenstein (Arcturus Ornate Classics)"

A collector's edition of the Mary Shelley's classic work, presented with gold foil embossing and gilded page edges. Frankenstein is considered to be one of the earliest examples of science fiction. Written by mother of science fiction Mary Shelley, it tells the story of scientist Victor Frankenstein and the catastrophic consequences of his attempts to create a perfect new being by activating a group of body parts with an electrical charge. The hideous monster that is born of Frankenstein's experiment wreaks havoc when it realises that it will never know the happiness that mere mortals can enjoy. ABOUT THE SERIES: Arcturus Ornate Classics are beautifully bound editions of iconic literary works across history. These compact, foil-embossed hardbacks are printed using deluxe ivory paper and make the perfect gift.
