Furthermore, varied reinterpretations of the novel,ranging from comic film versions such as Mel Brookss Young Frankenstein and Richard O Briens The Rocky Horror Show, to the 1960s novelty record The Monster Mash by Bobby Boris Pickett and the Crypt Kickers, confirm that Frankenstein is part of our social and cultural iconography.

内容推荐

Begun when the author was only eighteen and conceived from a nightmare, Frankenstein is the deeply disturbing story of a monstrous creation which has terrified and chilled readers since its first publication in 1818. The novel has thus seared its way into the popular imagination while establishing itself as one of the pioneering works of modern science fiction.
