Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

Mary Shelley’s novel is the work of a thinker, and not just the cheap thrill that countless sequels, spin-offs, and spoofs might lead one to expect. The philosophical, psychological, and ethical complexities in which she has tangled her tale deepen its strangeness and wonder. Strange and wonderful it remains, as suspenseful a monster yarn, and as absorbing a human one, as any reader could desire.

Movie (1931) is gothic horror; book is very early sci fi. Both are wonderful. Mary had her mother's brains.

a good interesting book. The book makes you think.I think it's much better than the movie (1931) because it is not a horror as the movie portrays, but maybe early sci-fi instead.
