Frankenstein (El Moderno Prometeo)

by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

Frankenstein es una novela gótica que explora las consecuencias éticas de la ambición científica y la naturaleza de la creación. El científico Víctor Frankenstein crea un ser monstruoso a partir de partes de cadáveres y le da vida, pero horrorizado por su creación, lo abandona. El monstruo, abandonado y rechazado por la sociedad, busca venganza y se convierte en un símbolo de la soledad y el peligro de jugar a ser Dios. La novela explora temas como la identidad, la responsabilidad moral, la naturaleza humana y el poder de la ciencia.
