"Frankenstein, ou le Prométhée moderne Volume 2 (of 3)" by Mary Shelley is a novel published in 1818. A young Swiss scientist creates a living being from dead flesh, only to abandon his creation in horror. The intelligent creature, rejected and persecuted, seeks revenge against his creator and society. Told through nested narratives within an Arctic expedition frame, the story explores the consequences of ambition and abandonment. This Gothic tale blends horror with philosophy, becoming a precursor to science fiction and a lasting cultural archetype. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
