Mary Shelley: Frankenstein

This study focuses on how Frankenstein works: how the story is told and why it is so rich and gripping. Part I uses carefully selected short extracts for close textual analysis, while Part II examines Shelley''s life, the historical and literary contexts of the novel, and offers a sample of key criticism.>
