Book description
The California edition of the Pennyroyal Press "Frankenstein" unites the dark side of Barry Moser's art with the classic 1818 text of Mary Shelley's tale of moral transfiguration. In a vivid sequence of woodcuts, the reader witnesses the birth of the "monster" as Moser shapes him from darkness and gives him a form simultaneously ghastly in its malice and transfixing in its suffering.
With an introduction from Haifaa al-Mansour, director of Mary Shelley.
There is something in my soul, which I do not understand.
Written by a teenage girl, Frankenstein is one of literature's greatest Gothic horror stories.
Now with a striking new cover, discover one of the books considered to be a pioneer of YA.
-----
Victor Frankenstein has made a terrible mistake. In his desperate pursuit to create life, he has created a monster.
A monster which, abandoned by his master and shunned by everyone it meets, follows Dr Frankenstein to the very ends of the earth with horror and murder in its recycled heart.
Shelly takes the reader on a journey through St Petersburg, to the beautiful Swiss Alps, to the desolate waste of the Arctic Circle, in a story that has sent a chill down the spines of generations.
