New York. 1965. December 1965. Signet/New American Library. 1st Signet Classic Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. Afterword By Harold Bloom. 224 pages. paperback. CD329. Cover: Tsao. FROM THE PUBLISHER - The story of Victor Frankenstein and of the monstrous creature he created has held the reading public spellbound since its publication almost a century and a half ago. On the surface it is a novel of tense and steadily mounting horror; but on a more profound level it offers searching illumination of the human condition in its portrayal of a scientist who oversteps the bounds of conscience and of a monster brought to life in an alien world ever more desperately attempting to escape the torture of his solitude. A brilliant exercise in the macabre written with near - hallucinatory intensity Frankenstein represents one of the most striking flowerings of the Romantic imagination. Of its contemporary significance Harold Bloom writes: 'The greatest paradox and most astonishing achievement of Mary Shelley's novel is that the monster is more human than his creator. This nameless being as much a modern Adam as his creator is a modern Prometheus is more lovable than his creator and more hateful more to be pitied and more to be feared and above all able to give the attentive reader that shock of added consciousness in which aesthetic recognition compels a heightened realization of the self.'. inventory #31256 paperback
