Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is one of the most influential works of Gothic literature and early science fiction. The novel follows Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant and ambitious young scientist who discovers the secret of creating life, only to recoil in horror from the being he has brought into the world. Abandoned by his creator and rejected by society, the creature becomes a tragic figure shaped by loneliness, suffering, and the desire to be loved. More than a story of terror, Frankenstein is a profound meditation on ambition, responsibility, isolation, creation, revenge, and the limits of human knowledge. Mary Shelley's classic explores what happens when scientific curiosity is separated from moral duty, and when a living being is denied compassion, family, and belonging. Dark, emotional, and philosophically rich, this audiobook is ideal for listeners interested in Gothic fiction, classic literature, horror, science fiction, tragic characters, and timeless questions about humanity and creation.
