{"product_id":"frankenstein-9780679409991","title":"Frankenstein","description":"In \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e, published in 1818 and revised in 1831, Mary Shelley produced both English Romanticism's finest prose fiction and the world's most famous horror story--a vision of human overreaching and inhumanity that haunts us still. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen Victor Frankenstein dares to create life and then recoils in horror from his own creation, he puts into motion an escalating cycle of isolation, grief, and vengeance. By setting its tormented Promethean hero in conflict with a shunned and lonely monster who desperately longs for acceptance and companionship, \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein \u003c\/i\u003erises far above the Gothic thrillers of its time, and ours. No reader in the grip of Shelley's iconic story can fail to notice how much more excellent the original is than all the adaptations, imitations, and outright plagiarisms that have followed in its ample wake. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Everyman's Library edition reproduces Shelley's revised 1831 version of the text, and includes an introduction by Wendy Lesser.","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"STANDARD","offer_id":62341521932675,"sku":"9780679409991","price":27.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/8456\/3587\/files\/9780679409991.jpg?v=1786149406","url":"https:\/\/shopcomics.eu\/products\/frankenstein-9780679409991","provider":"Shop Comics EU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
