The Essential Frankenstein

Rating:
Summary: THE DEFINITIVE FRANKENSTEIN!!!
Review: Editor Leonard Wolf has "given life" (pun intended) to Mary Wollestonecraft Shelley's classic. (this is the edition published in 1818) Thousands of facts on every aspect of the inspiration and evolution of the story as well as commentaries by Robert Bloch, Leonard Maltin, Forrest J. Ackerman and others. A Frankenstein filmography is also included as well as copies of Shelley's handwitten notes along with her original introduction to the 1831 edition of the book. For lovers of classic gothic horror, this edition should be the only version on your bookshelf....right next to Wolf's equally well done version of Bram Stoker's Dracula!
