ReadLoftAbout the book
Ambitious young scientist Victor Frankenstein assembles a living creature from dead matter — then recoils in horror at what he's made. Abandoned and reviled, the creature learns language, longing, and finally vengeance. Written by an eighteen-year-old, this is the original science-fiction novel: a haunting meditation on creation, responsibility, and the loneliness of being unloved.
