'I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life and stir with an uneasy, half-vital motion.' A summer evening's ghost stories, lonely insomnia in a moonlit Alpine's room, and a runaway imagination -- fired by philosophical discussions with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley about science, galvanism, and the origins of life -- conspired to produce for Mary Shelley this haunting night specter. By morning, it had become the germ of her Romantic masterpiece, "Frankenstein." Written in 1816 when she was only 19, Mary Shelley's novel of 'The Modern Prometheus' chillingly dramatized the dangerous potential of life begotten upon a laboratory table. A frightening creation myth for our own time, "Frankenstein" remains one of the greatest horror stories ever written and is an undisputed classic of its kind.

评分这本书读起来真是压抑,尤其是我自己心里其实一直也有创造生命的梦想。 弗兰肯斯坦原本是出于对生命的美的热爱,才费尽心血造出了那个怪人,结果却发现这个生命是如此丑陋,连自己这个造物主都无法接受。其实怪人原本也只是外表丑陋,内心并不坏,然而他的丑陋让人们都...
评分很佩服玛丽 雪莱的功力,让我这个即使看的时候每页都有N个生词的人竟然也看感受到了书中人物的喜怒哀乐。 最大的悲剧也许就是你永远不能责怪哪个人,但是事情就这样发生了。The being, for I don't know what to adress it. 他没有要求Frankenstein创造自己,而Frankein...
