Book excerpt: Detective Edward Freame is hired to investigate the strange circumstances surrounding the murder of Henry Clerval, only to be tormented by the writings of the man who was originally tried for the crime: Dr. Victor Frankenstein. Following the trail left by the late Frankenstein, Freame scours the European countryside, trying to find the clues that will lead him to the truth behind the murder of Clerval, along the way, discovering Frankenstein's connection to the deaths of William Frankenstein, Elizabeth Lavenza, and the disputed existence of a monster birthed by Frankenstein himself. With the doctor's dictated journals as the only account of the murder, Edward explores the undocumented life of Victor Frankenstein, collecting interviews and observations from a revolving door of Victorian aristocracy and caddish ne'er-do-wells that knew Victor during his lifetime, revealing inner triumphs, deepest fears, and the nature of his horrific experiments. Throughout his investigations, Freame becomes attuned to the mind of Frankenstein, finding he has more in common with the scientist than he would like to admit. Renowned for his rational mind, Freame is torn between believing in an inhuman monster, brought to life from dead flesh, or in an elaborate cover-up to hide something even more sinister. In a stunning homage to Mary Shelley's original horror story, Kathlyn Bradshaw combines Victorian gaslight detective novels and smog drenched ghost stories to explore the psychological underpinnings of characters first rendered almost two-hundred years ago.

Download or read book Frankenstein (Original Unabridged Version) written by Mary Shelley and published by Golden Valley Press. This book was released on 2019-12-23 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The novel 'Frankenstein' by Marry Shelley is a very famous gothic novel and has sold many copies till date. It is a compelling book that has managed to grab the attention of audiences since day-one. According to some, the monster of Frankenstein is symbolic of the industrialization that created havoc and destruction in Europe in the nineteenth century. However, according to others, it stands for the fears in the writer's mind to changing times and new events. The novel is often classified as gothic since it dwells on mystery and the supernatural world. The setting is that of dark, sublime and exotic, making the reader uneasy. And, the 'double' feature only adds to the mystery and the sensation for the reader. According to some critics in the past and present, this is the first extant scientific novel written in English language. The writing style of the author is truly remarkable and is the main highlight of this book. The plot of the book has been well thought of and it has all the essentials that make a book a classic. It has the right dose of love, suspense, friendship and, quintessential to this book, human psychology. The book provides the reader with an understanding on life in a totally new and refreshing manner."

Download or read book The Murder of Henry Clerval written by Richard Hassler and published by Hasslerian Press, LLC. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is a timeless classic, but continues to suffer frequent Hollywood distortions. From movies starring Boris Karloff (William Henry Pratt) in 1931 to Robert DeNiro in 1994, film adaptations of Frankenstein never have portrayed Shelley's full story on the silver screen. An important but often overlooked part of the original book is the murder of Henry Clerval, Victor Frankenstein's dear lifelong friend. Although many film versions of Frankenstein include Henry Clerval as a character, these films never tell the story of his untimely demise. The literature has been silent on this as well ... until now. Richard Hassler

Book excerpt: "Because I'm teaching an intro-level course in comparative literature, this edition was extremely helpful in showing the variety of critical approaches that they can take toward a single text. The article on radical science also helped me compare Frankenstein to Alasdair Gray's Poor Things. I highly recommend this edition of Frankenstein and will use it in the future." -Joshua Beall, Rutgers University

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gothic horror story that imagines what happens to Frnkenstein's monster after the death of his creator, Victor. What becomes of a monster without its maker? At the end of Mary Shelley’s classic novel, the creator dies but his creation still lives, cursed to a life of isolation and hatred. Frankenstein’s Monster continues the creature’s story as he’s compelled to discover his humanity, to escape the ship captain who vowed to the dying Frankenstein to hunt him down—and to resist the woman who would destroy them all. This is a tale of passion, revenge, violence, and madness—and the desperate search for meaning in an often meaningless world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes Mary Shelley's Frankenstein—two gothic novels in one! In this chilling sequel to Mary Shelley's famous horror classic, Hilary Bailey imagines what might have happened if Dr. Frankenstein had created a female companion for his monster. Years after he inadvertently set in motion the events that caused a series of deranged murders, Dr. Frankenstein, now living a happy and privileged life, sets to work on restoring the voice of beautiful young opera singer Maria Clementi. But things are not always as they seem, and soon the rumors about Victor Frankenstein begin to worry his new assistant, Jonathan Goodall. When Jonathan spies a mysterious figure lurking near Maria's theatre, and later discovers his own wife and child murdered in cold blood, he knows he'll do anything to uncover the truth of Frankenstein and his newest experiments—a truth he knows will change everything... For more than two hundred years, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus has kept readers enthralled. Shelley brought to life not only Frankenstein's monster, but also a masterpiece that authors have reimagined again and again. Frankenstein's Bride is perfect for seekers of the supernatural, classic horror fans, and readers of gothic fiction.

Book excerpt: From the celebrated imagination of Dean Koontz comes a powerful reworking of one of the classic stories of all time. If you think you know the legend, you know only half the truth. Here is the mystery, the myth, the terror, and the magic of . . . Every city has its secrets. But none as terrible as this. He is Deucalion, a tattooed man of mysterious origin, a sleight-of-reality artist who has traveled the centuries with a secret worse than death. He arrives in New Orleans as a serial killer stalks the streets, a killer who carefully selects his victims for the humanity that is missing in himself. Deucalion’s path will lead him to cool, tough police detective Carson O’Connor and her devoted partner, Michael Maddison, who are tracking the slayer but will soon discover signs of something far more terrifying: an entire race of killers who are much more–and less–than human and, deadliest of all, their deranged, near-immortal maker: Victor Helios–once known as Frankenstein.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Ackroyd's imagination dazzles in this brilliant novel written in the voice of Victor Frankenstein himself. Mary Shelley and Shelley are characters in the novel. It was at Oxford that I first met Bysshe. We arrived at our college on the same day; confusing to a mere foreigner, it is called University College. I had seen him from my window and had been struck by his auburn locks. The long-haired poet -- "Mad Shelley" -- and the serious-minded student from Switzerland spark each other's interest in the new philosophy of science which is overturning long-cherished beliefs. Perhaps there is no God. In which case, where is the divine spark, the soul? Can it be found in the human brain? The heart? The eyes? Victor Frankenstein begins his anatomy experiments in a barn near Oxford. The coroner's office provides corpses -- but they have often died of violence and drowning; they are damaged and putrifying. Victor moves his coils and jars and electrical fluids to a deserted pottery and from there, makes contact with the Doomesday Men -- the resurrectionists. Victor finds that perfect specimens are hard to come by . . . until that Thames-side dawn when, wrapped in his greatcoat, he hears the splashing of oars and sees in the half-light the approaching boat where, slung into the stern, is the corpse of a handsome young man, one hand trailing in the water. . . .
