"Frankenstein", written by Mary Shelley, tells the haunting story of Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist driven by an insatiable curiosity and ambition to unlock the secrets of life. In his quest to defy natural laws, Victor creates a living being from assembled body parts, only to be horrified by the result—a creature of immense strength and intelligence but grotesque appearance. Rejected by its creator and society, the creature embarks on a journey of self-discovery, longing for acceptance and companionship, but its isolation leads to despair and vengeance.
A tale of ambition, morality, and the consequences of playing God, "Frankenstein" is a profound exploration of the dangers of unchecked scientific experimentation and the ethical dilemmas surrounding creation and responsibility. Shelley's masterpiece remains a timeless reflection on humanity, alienation, and the unintended consequences of human innovation.
