Frankenstein (The Norton Library) by Mary Shelley

Frankenstein (The Norton Library) by Mary Shelley

The Norton Library edition of Frankenstein features the complete text of the first (1818) edition and Mary Shelley’s preface to the third (1831) edition. An introduction by Michael Bérubé situates the work in its historical and literary contexts, and, drawing on his pioneering work in disability studies, highlights key themes that will encourage readers to approach this popular classic with fresh eyes. The Norton Library is a growing collection of high-quality texts and translations—influential works of literature and philosophy—introduced and edited by leading scholars. Norton Library editions prepare readers for their first encounter with the works that they’ll re-read over a lifetime. • Inviting introductions highlight the work’s significance and influence, providing the historical and literary context students need to dive in with confidence. • Endnotes and an easy-to-read design deliver an uninterrupted reading experience, encouraging students to read the text first and refer to endnotes for more information as needed. • An affordable price (most $10 or less) encourages students to buy the book and to come to class with the assigned edition.
