Mary Shelley's seminal work, "Frankenstein," is a chilling and thought-provoking tale that explores the dangers of scientific hubris and the nature of humanity.

Victor Frankenstein and the Creature

Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but reckless scientist, creates a grotesque creature from human body parts. Initially horrified by his creation, Frankenstein abandons it, leaving it to fend for itself in a hostile world.

The Creature's Revenge

The abandoned creature, rejected by society, seeks revenge on its creator. It murders Frankenstein's loved ones and ultimately confronts him in a climactic battle on the Arctic ice.

Themes of Identity and Isolation

"Frankenstein" delves into profound themes of identity, isolation, and the consequences of unchecked ambition. The creature, longing for acceptance and love, is met with fear and rejection. Frankenstein, consumed by guilt and remorse, becomes a tragic figure haunted by his own creation.

A Warning Against Scientific Overreach

Shelley's novel serves as a cautionary tale against the dangers of scientific overreach and the importance of ethical considerations in scientific pursuits. It raises questions about the limits of human knowledge and the responsibility that comes with it.'
