SparkNotes, 2002

Good analysis
I don't advocate reading SparkNotes (or CliffNotes) but if you are a high school/college student with a busy schedule and don't have time to read Shelley's novel, this does give a complete and accurate summary of the book's contents; it also explores the themes and leitmotivs of the novel quite well. I recommend it highly, although I would never recommend reading SparkNotes in place of the novel ...

Great Read
I thoroughly enjoyed this collection of short stories. It was a great read on a stormy Saturday afternoon-the dark weather enhanced the dark qualities, written ever so light-heartedly, of each story. I easily placed people I knew into the roles of the characters and was sad when the last story ended. I enjoyed how clever Mrs. Marshall was in "Compulsive Bubba". I also found the hobby of ...

THE DEFINITIVE FRANKENSTEIN!!!
Editor Leonard Wolf has "given life" (pun intended) to Mary Wollestonecraft Shelley's classic. (this is the edition published in 1818) Thousands of facts on every aspect of the inspiration and evolution of the story as well as commentaries by Robert Bloch, Leonard Maltin, Forrest J. Ackerman and others. A Frankenstein filmography is also included as well as copies of Shelley's handwitten notes ...

Underwood-Miller, 1995

Stunning illustration
Berni Wrightson, in what is probably the crowning achievement of his career, masterfully illustrates this romantic classic in superb full-page pen and ink. Wrightson's conception of the monster is both horrifying and frighteningly sympathetic, and he demonstrates both his talent for capturing dynamism and motion as well as his grasp of the emotional conflicts of the story. A note to literary ...

Here there be Monsters and Wizards
Tom Pomplun and the Graphic Classics team just keep getting better. This latest release is another anthology collection, bringing us some of the more obscure tales from famous authors like L. Frank Baum, as well as the grand slam home run of Mary Shelley. I love these anthology collections the best, for the chance to be introduced to some new authors as well as seeing adaptations of some of my ...

Three classics books, three classic monsters, and three classic stories that have been told and retold time and time again, all here in one great book! I'm sure you Horror Film fans like me have seen the Boris Karloff Frankenstein, the Bela Lugosi Dracula, and the Fredric March Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but if you haven't read the original novels...YOU AIN'T SEEN OR READ NOTHING YET!

Ediciones B, 2002

Worth Reading!
This book was way ahead of its time when written. It is more about prejudice and not liking people because they look different, than a monster story. The "monster" created by Frankenstein is actually a very complex character with deep thoughts about philosophy and life in general. He strives for the acceptance of his creator who virtually abandons him. The book has virtually no similarity to ...

Fascinante.
Una obra realmente fantástica, estoy en total acuerdo con que sea una de las mejores y más reconocidas obras en la lieratura gótica, una simple joya. Me gustó mucho el concepto, la historia en general; ¿Cómo no sentirse identificado con aquella desgraciada criatura? Privado de la felicidad desde su nacimiento, condenado a una existencia sin el menor gesto de simpatía por parte de la gente. Él ...

A Classic Tale of Terror is Reborn Again!
I saw Mary Shelley's Frankenstein in 1994 at the theaters. It wasn't the best Frankenstein film, but I thought it was a very well done version nonetheless. After reading Leonore Fleischer's novelization of this film version, I closed the book feeling an even stronger chill course through my veins then walking out of the theaters. Fleischer beautifully retells the timeless story in every ...

The best Frankenstein book!
This book shows that Dr. Frankenstein's creation was not a monster, just misunderstood. It is hated by the people who see it because of its monstrous appearance. The first person to not be afraid is a blind child. Frankenstein, unfortunately, accidentally kills the child. It goes through some rough things throughout the book. But I won't spoil it for you. You'll most likely read this a ...

Nice Chiller Thriller Scary for Bedtime Reading, Really!
I just have to write a few words about the adaptation of Mary Shelly's FRANKENSTEIN for children, by Larry Weinberg. My twin sister, who is as big a reader as I am, is trying to introduce her almost five-year-old daughter to the classics and this book was/is a mega huge success. Frankenstein is all she can talk about now. No more Blue's Clues for her, she's into Mary Shelly's man made monster, ...

and more stars also!!!!
It is not always possible to find a book in which there are as many good examples of the genre as possible about the same topic.This book satisfies my hunger for that.Many of the stories not only entertain you but also make you think,argue with the others and imagine further (as those great writers in the book once did) about the great mystery of the nature:Life!!!In some of the ...

Frankenstein (Girlebooks Classics)

1 review, 2008

Far ahead of her time
Mary Shelley was so far ahead of her time that another notable science fiction book by a woman would not appear for another 128 years. As a nuts-and-bolts Science Fiction fan, I avoided reading Frankenstein because the name had been caught up in endless cliches and had been inextricably linked with the horror genre, which I considered a repository for bad Science Fiction. When tasked with ...

AD Classic, 2008

A timeless classic
I read Frankenstein when I was growing up, and decided to read it again. It's just as good as I remember it, and I read through it in a couple of days. Frankenstein reminds me of the outcast that is never accepted, and the struggles that overwhelm him. This is a timeless classic, of which I will argue that it is the First true SF story ever written. Bravo Mary Shelley...

a true Gothic masterpiece
Frankenstein is complex, deeply affecting examination of human nature. The book is even more relevant today than it was over a hundred and fifty years ago.
