Strange worlds
Frankenstein
Gothic fiction
Creating life is only the beginning. Who owes what to the being left behind?
Enter a Gothic fiction that makes creation the beginning of responsibility rather than the end of the experiment. This reading choice is the 1818 three-volume text, not the revised 1831 version.
