Mary Shelley's Frankenstein



Master Piece Frankenstein follows the story of all and any one of us - the one who ends up making mistakes so big that it physically and, more importantly, mentally takes over them.
The nature of a mistake is off 'wrong-doing' - exactly what Evil/Monster's character is purely founded on. Told by a women in the 1800s(!!), it is written so beautifully, taking into account the golden yet very basic elements of storytelling, which are all really the study of Human Psychology, that to this date, it resonates with all ages. It is such work, Frankenstein, that once again proves to all storytellers, that the art of storytelling, both of 'entertainment' and of 'Literal/conceptual and Academic' orientation, can be fused and flourished into a simple but most importantly primal story. (Primal to humans)

The Role of the Female, Sex, Monstrosity, human nature, the nature of life and such life issues are of concern to Shelley in my opinion.
