The Complete 1818 Edition in American English
What if you could play God? Victor Frankenstein dares to find out. Obsessed with unlocking the secrets of life itself, the brilliant young scientist achieves the impossible: he brings a creature assembled from dead flesh to life. But the moment his creation opens its eyes, Victor is seized by horror at what he has done—and flees. Abandoned and alone, the intelligent but monstrous creature awakens to a world that will never accept him. Rejected by his creator and hunted by humanity, he transforms from innocent victim to relentless predator.
This edition preserves every word of Mary Shelley's original 1818 text while updating the language for today's readers. No archaic spellings or confusing syntax. Just the full power of one of literature's most enduring horror stories.
