About this film

LibriVox recording of Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, Version 5 by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. Read in English by Mark F. Smith. “Beware what you wish for – you may get it!” These words may have been written for Victor Frankenstein, a proud young man of Switzerland who thought he had the elements of a chemical giant within himself. After some months of feverish work in isolation, he succeeded in creating and animating an actual giant, a homunculus. Afraid to confront the being, Frankenstein left it to its own devices. Spurned in horror by every human it revealed itself to, beaten and wounded, what was it to do? It locked one thought within its grotesque brain: find its creator, and make him pay! - Summary by Mark Smith For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
