Frankenstein

By Mary Shelley
Frankenstein by Mary Shelley digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Obsessed with unlocking the secrets of life, young scientist Victor Frankenstein assembles a living being from the remnants of the dead. But what he brings into the world is no ordinary man-it is a creature of terrifying strength and aching loneliness. Abandoned by its creator and shunned by society, the being turns from yearning for love to burning for revenge, setting in motion a tragic struggle between parent and child, maker and made.

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is both a gothic horror story and a profound meditation on ambition, responsibility, and what it means to be human. First published in 1818, it remains one of the most influential novels ever written.

This version has been formatted for bionic reading, a formatting method that highlights the first few letters of each word in bold. It's designed to support faster and more focused reading by guiding the eyes and reducing visual fatigue. Though beneficial for everyone, this technique is especially popular among readers with ADHD or concentration difficulties. There is also a short but helpful study guide at the end of the book.

Frankenstein Reviews

4.0
“one of my favorite books, trying to reread it every year. Shelley writes a beautiful, but heartbreaking, commentary on the world she lived in which draws parallels to present day.”
“A forever favorite. Haven’t read since high school but it was just as beautifully written and tragic as I remember, if not more so. Mary Shelley, the genius you are!”
