Description
The original story of science gone berserk: one that changed how far our dreams can stretch. Imagine a human created out of corpses. A monster assembled by a scientist from parts of dead bodies develops a mind of his own as he learns to loathe himself and hate his creator. Who is the monster: this tortured beast, or the man who made him?--Goodreads, LibraryThing.
A monster has been loosed upon the world--super-humanly strong, inhumanly vicious. Its inventor knows he must find and destroy it--halt its career of terror and murder! But as Victor Frankenstein, the mad scientist, pursues his monster through the night, he hears the echo of its fearsome voice: "You are my creator, but I am your master. Obey!--WorldCat.
"Mary Shelley's timeless Gothic novel presents the epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.
