An Obsession Gone Awry,
By Fan of Time-Life Books "Chris" (Spokane, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Frankenstein (Hardcover)
Frankenstein is one of the great classics of horror literature. Wanting to overcome death and disease, Victor Frankenstein seeks to create life. In the process he builds a monster from graveyards and slaughter houses. The monster comes to life and wants to be loved. However, the monster's unpleasant appearance makes it difficult for others to show compassion. The only person who offers any sort of kindness is blind. The monster eventually stalks and torments its creator. Ironically, Frankenstein loses some of his loved ones at the hands of the powerful monster he created. Though this version is an adaptation designed for younger readers, it is still a powerful and compelling story. The book concludes with a short biographical profile of Mary Shelley. Highly recommended.
