Frankenstein es un clásico atemporal y una obra pionera de la literatura gótica escrita por Mary Shelley. Publicada por primera vez en 1818 -una época en la que las mujeres que escribÃan ficción se encontraban con la resistencia de la sociedad-, esta novela se ha convertido desde entonces en parte fundamental de la historia de la literatura y de la ciencia ficción.
La historia gira en torno a Victor Frankenstein, un joven cientÃfico brillante y ambicioso movido por un deseo insaciable de desvelar los secretos de la vida y la muerte. Su obsesión le lleva a construir un ser artificial mediante un osado y macabro experimento cientÃfico.
La criatura a la que Victor da vida es un ser terrorÃfico pero sensible e inteligente. Lleno de remordimientos y horror ante la visión de su propia creación, Victor abandona a la criatura, intentando olvidar las consecuencias de sus actos. Sin embargo, su abandono pone en marcha una trágica cadena de acontecimientos que le perseguirán el resto de su vida.
A lo largo de la novela, Shelley explora temas de gran profundidad, como los peligros de la ambición desmedida, la ética de los descubrimientos cientÃficos, las consecuencias del rechazo humano y la esencia de la propia humanidad. El libro sigue cautivando al público y suscitando debates sobre las consideraciones éticas de los avances cientÃficos, asà como sobre la capacidad humana de empatÃa, aceptación y responsabilidad.
