概要

 In a tale that explores the depths of ambition and despair, Victor Frankenstein, a tormented genius driven by the aspirations of ancient alchemists and modern science, creates a living being. Yet, upon its awakening, he fails to nurture and educate this creature, leaving it to navigate a harsh and unforgiving world alone. Subjected to fear and violence due to its monstrous appearance, the creature soon turns its anguish toward its creator, demanding a companion to share in its sorrow. Moved by the creatures tragic story, Victor initially agrees but ultimately hesitates, awakening a torrent of doubt that leads to betrayal. In retaliation, the creature embarks on a vengeful quest, targeting Victor’s heart and soul, while Victor spirals into paranoia, fearing for humanitys safety. Their harrowing chase takes them into the frozen north, where survival becomes a deadly game of wits and endurance. Narrated by Victor, this gripping story weaves together letters from a young mariner who rescues him, encapsulating the ambition and horror of creation. Written during a fateful summer on the shores of Lake Geneva, this iconic novel, originally published in 1818 and later revised in 1831, showcases Mary Shelleys brilliance as she transforms a simple ghost story into a profound exploration of humanity and isolation.
