Frankenstein by Mary Shelley { Goodreads } Published by Penguin in 2012 Paperback edition; 269 pages { BookDepository } Frankenstein follows Victor Frankenstein and his obsession with creating life; something he actually achieves by using different bodies of the dead. I went into this book presumably knowing it all thanks to its very presence in our culture and the many film/TV adaptations. But as it turned out I didn’t know a thing. I mean, yes, the story is there but it is so much more that I thought it will be.
