Mary Shelley’s cult Gothic novel represents one of the most important works in the history of world literature, having laid the foundations for modern science fiction and the horror genre. The story of the ambitious scientist Victor Frankenstein and his nameless creature is a profound philosophical and moral discourse on the limits of human knowledge, responsibility, isolation, and the quest for acceptance—themes that continue to resonate powerfully with readers today. This edition is part of the popular Vintage Classics Library, distinctive for its striking cover design featuring a frozen sea motif, which directly evokes the Arctic setting where the novel’s plot begins and ends. The text is based on the revised and expanded historical edition of 1831, and the book also includes a useful biographical note on the author’s exciting and tragic life. The copy is a paperback and generally in well-preserved external condition; however, the interior bears visible mechanical damage in the form of an irregularly torn upper right corner on the introductory page containing the author's biography. Whilst a small piece of paper is missing, the text of the biography itself remains entirely readable and intact.
