Frankenstein by Mary Shelley is a groundbreaking classic that delves into the darkest corners of human ambition and the consequences of playing god. Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant yet obsessed scientist, defies natural laws to create life itself, assembling a monstrous being from dead body parts. What follows is a chilling tale of horror, regret, and a pursuit that spans continents.
When Victor’s experiment succeeds, he is horrified by the creature he brings to life—a being both magnificent and terrifying. Abandoned and left to fend for itself, the creature becomes increasingly tormented by its isolation and the rejection it faces from humanity. It seeks its creator, desperate for companionship and understanding but is met only with fear and hostility. The result is a cycle of revenge that leaves a trail of tragedy in its wake.
Shelley’s masterpiece goes beyond mere horror; it is a deep philosophical inquiry into the nature of humanity, the quest for knowledge, and the consequences of hubris. Through its gothic atmosphere and poignant themes, Frankenstein explores questions of identity, creation, and the moral responsibilities of those who push the boundaries of science.
This audiobook brings to life the haunting emotions and terrifying moments that have made Frankenstein a timeless work of fiction. Perfect for fans of gothic literature, classic horror, and thought-provoking tales, this story remains as relevant today as it was when first published.
