Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
by Matt Hughes (artist)Publish: Feb 22, 2019Historical Fiction Horror Book Overview
This edition of Frankenstein approaches the story of the creator’s original concept of Frankenstein’s Monster - a self-reflection of the darker side of Victor and, therefore, the reader. Each chapter header is accompanied by four hand tipped-in color plates that reveal the journey of the monster from conception to birth to self-awareness and finally to the acceptance of mortality and solitude. Never before has such an artistic interpretation of this character been produced. This edition will be the first in a three part series focusing on the creators of what we today call horror - the next volume will be an Illuminated edition of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
