FRANKENSTEIN “My imagination, unbidden, possessed and guided me …I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together— I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life, and stir with an uneasy, half-vital.”

Interestingly…. Mary titled the novel Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus. She did not put her own name on the 1818 edition. Mary finally received credit when she wrote the introduction and published the 1831 edition.

A Year of Tragedy In 1822: Claire’s daughter dies at the convent where her father has sent her. Percy saves Mary from bleeding to death following a miscarriage. Caught in a storm, Percy dies while boating.
