"Frankenstein" is a novel written by Mary Shelley. It is considered to be the first true science-fiction story, blending elements of the Gothic novel and the Romantic movement. The story is told in a frame narrative, with Captain Walton as the narrator. Victor Frankenstein, the central character, becomes obsessed with understanding the world and creates a humanoid creature through his experiments. However, he is repulsed by his creation and flees. The creature, abandoned by his creator, seeks revenge and demands that Victor create a female companion for him. Victor reluctantly agrees but fears the consequences. The story follows their tragic journey, with Victor pursuing the creature across Europe and into the Arctic. The novel explores themes of creation, responsibility, and the consequences of playing god. Mary Shelley drew inspiration from her own life experiences and the works of other writers, such as John Milton's "Paradise Lost." The novel has had a significant impact on literature and has been adapted into numerous films, plays, and television shows.
