ReviewBook 24 - Mary Shelley - Frankenstein

Perhaps the most surprising part of both this and Dracula are how similar the methods are in which both tales are told.

Both are written in the form of letters, diaries and other personal documents. It is astonishing just how different this story is to the one I thought I knew.

Victor Frankenstein’s mental state deteriorates as the mounting death toll around him pushes him further and further to the edge of sanity .The original sympathy we had for the creature soon dissipates as its horrific agenda reveals itself.

It is easy to see why this novel has become one of the most adapted in celluloid history.
