瑪麗·雪萊(1797-1851),英國著名小說傢,因其一八一八年創作的《弗蘭肯斯坦》被譽為科幻小說之母。
'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.

評分很佩服瑪麗 雪萊的功力,讓我這個即使看的時候每頁都有N個生詞的人竟然也看感受到瞭書中人物的喜怒哀樂。 最大的悲劇也許就是你永遠不能責怪哪個人,但是事情就這樣發生瞭。The being, for I don't know what to adress it. 他沒有要求Frankenstein創造自己,而Frankein...
