Review: This Dover Thrift Edition version was 166 pages and after reading it I saw that other versions were 200 and up to 500 pages in length. I’m not sure if I allowed myself to be cheated pages and unknowingly read a watered down Cliff Notes version. As for the book itself, I was amazed that such a young person could have written this book barely out of their teens. The vocabulary and turn of phrase she created and used was astonishing. I also found her poetic prose used to describe the character’s descriptions of nature to be enjoyable. Also the author did an amazing job writing on Victor Frankenstein’s descriptions of the heartbreak of being alone and away from love ones for months and years at a time and the regret and remorse he felt for creating the monster. Also the author wrote about the character Walton and his feelings of being alone and being unable to bond and form a meaningful friendship with another male during his lifetime. I also enjoyed the poetic prose of the monster and his thoughts when he spoke about the “cottagers” and also his disdain for Victor and all of mankind. I also thought it was clever how Shelley started off this book with letters written between the character Walton and his sister Mrs Seville. Walton later meets Victor Frankenstein by chance in the Russian Artic. Victor then becomes the narrative voice in the book as he tells his story. Later the monster himself becomes narrative voice of the story. Then Victor resumes the story narrative, followed by Walton again, and concluding with the monster. It’s a great book and I recommend it. Review: This is a classic and a book that ever casual and avid reader should have in their library. The copy is beautiful and sleek and I am more than happy to have finally gotten it for myself.

What I liked: -Foldable cardboard packaging - Books received in perfect condition - 100% recyclable material used What I disliked: - prime branding was missing for prime order, but I am sure seller will improve it in future.

Zugegebermaßen mag das Buch stellenweise etwas langatmig erscheinen, aber gelesen haben sollte man das Buch wenigstens einmal im Leben. Eine kleine Hürde ist das alte Englisch, was manchmal zu Verständnisproblemen führen kann. Es ist ein sehr bewegendes Buch und regt zum Nachdenken an. Man erlebt ein Wechselbad der Gefühle, soll man Frankenstein und seine Kreatur verabscheuen oder sie bemitleiden? Wer Horror, Action und Romantik sucht ist mit diesem Klassiker gut bedient.
