ABOUT FRANKENSTEIN. Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is a novel written by Mary Shelley about a creature produced by an unorthodox scientific experiment. Shelley started writing the story when she was eighteen, and the novel was published when she was twenty-one. The first edition was published anonymously in London in 1818. Shelley's name appears on the second edition, published in France in 1823. Shelley had travelled in the region of Geneva, where much of the story takes place, and the topics of galvanism and other similar occult ideas were themes of conversation among her companions, particularly her future husband, Percy. The storyline emerged from a dream. Mary, Percy, Lord Byron, and John Polidori decided to have a competition to see who could write the best horror story. After thinking for weeks about what her possible storyline could be, Shelley dreamt about a scientist who created life and was horrified by what he had made. She then wrote Frankenstein. ABOUT THE AUTHOR. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (UK: 30 August 1797 1 February 1851) was an English novelist who wrote the Gothic novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus (1818), which is considered an early example of science fiction. She also edited and promoted the works of her husband, the Romantic poet and philosopher Percy Bysshe Shelley. Her father was the political philosopher William Godwin and her mother was the philosopher and women's rights advocate Mary Wollstonecraft. Mary's mother died less than a fortnight after giving birth to her. She was raised by her father, who provided her with a rich if informal education, encouraging her to adhere to his own anarchist political theories. When she was four, her father married a neighbour, Mary Jane Clairmont, with whom Mary came to have a troubled relationship. Signed by Illustrator(s).

"Each illustration has thermochronic ink screen-printed over the full colour illustration, giving it two phases when human touch (heat) is applied. The ink is manufactured to react at 25 degrees Celsius (77 degrees Fahrenheit) or higher, so it can work or not depending on the temperature of your surroundings and how warm or cold your hands are."

Fine book; fine slipcase, with just a touch of soiling to panels. With parts of the original glassine wrapper laid in. Overall, a marvelous, strikingly illustrated copy. First published anonymously by 20-year-old Mary Shelley in 1818, Frankenstein is recognized as one of the greatest novels in the English language, and a foundational text in the horror and science fiction genres. Mary Shelley famously devised the story during a stay at a mansion in Switzerland with her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley, her stepsister Claire Clairmont, Lord Byron, and John Polidori, after the five of them began a game to see who could write the best ghost story. The story is told through a series of letters from Captain Robert Walton to his sister, beginning in the middle of his voyage to the North Pole, when Walton and his crew happen upon the lone, emaciated Victor Frankenstein in need of shelter. They take the stranger on board, and Walton slowly learns of his tortured past, from a tragic childhood to scientific experiments that eventually resulted in the creation of a monster who threatens his life. For this edition of Frankenstein, American artist Bernie Wrightson worked on the illustrations, based directly on the 1831 text, on and off for seven years. He wasn't paid for the project, saying "I've always had a thing for Frankenstein, and it was a labor of love. It was not an assignment, it was not a job.". Signed.

The Doctor Edition aims to represent the ambitious doctor and elements of his profession. It is limited to 300 numbered and signed copies, and it has several features that make it quite unique. Since we wanted to create two distinct editions, they share a deep connection, just like the doctor and its creation. The covers are inspired by an operating table and that is why we used aluminium as the main feature, which is then quarter-bound in the finest black leather, and then the spine was blocked with silver foil. Most importantly a real surgeon s needle was blocked on the front cover, while other details were engraved with laser. The goal was to have covers that can proudly claim the title of The Doctor Edition. Once you open the book, you ll be met by handmade marbled endpapers done by the legendary Freya Scott. They were done in a cellular pattern so to make one additional connection with Victor s profession. When you reach the title, you will find a hidden surprise in the book s title. But the creative concept for this title is where the book truly shines. It is based upon our insight that this is a story about connection, or rather the lack thereof. The Monster is constantly trying to connect with people. Signed by Illustrator(s).
