After this Gothic horror novel appeared in 1818, it sent chills down readers' spines. And most people were astounded to learn that it had been written by a teenaged girl. Mary Shelley was no ordinary girl, however. This information-packed companion to the novel chronicles her turbulent life, explains the sources of her ideas, and then examines the plot, characters, and themes of this classic and still influential work.
