Frankenstein - Original 1818 Uncensored Version by Mary Shelley
This is the original, 1818 text of Frankenstein. In 1831, the more traditionally first popular edition in one volume appeared.This version of the story was heavily revised by Mary Shelley who was under pressure to make the story more conservative, and included a new, longer preface by her, presenting a somewhat embellished version of the genesis of the story. This edition tends to be the one most widely read now but many scholars prefer the 1818 text, arguing that it preserves the spirit of Shelley's original publication.| SKU | Unavailable |
