This special unabridged, multivoiced production of Mary Shelley’s masterpiece of nineteenth-century Gothic horror is narrated by film and television star Anthony Heald, joined by Grammy winner Stefan Rudnicki and actor Simon Templeman, under the direction of award-winning audio producer Yuri Rasovsky.
Dr. Victor Frankenstein, an ambitious young scientist, is consumed by a fanatic desire to create a living being. He fashions an eight-foot creature and succeeds in animating him but, horrified by his visage, perceives his creation to be a monster and frightens him away. The monster, wandering in search of human companionship, is spurned and repulsed by all he approaches and learns to hate and to kill. He confronts his maker with a terrible choice: unless Frankenstein creates for him a mate, he will go on a rampage of destruction.
A subversive tale about the corrupt tendencies in humanity’s most “civilized” ambitions, this haunting thriller, the original science fiction novel, maintains its hold in the collective imagination centuries after its first publication.

Mary Shelleys Frakenstein och hans monster har verkligen ingenting att göra med de gamla filmerna med Boris Karloff att göra. Det här är en fantastisk och mörk historia, där det inte är helt lätt att avgöra vem som är ond och vem som är god. Inläsningen med tre olika läsare är inget annat än mästerlig! Rekommenderas!

En klassiker väl värd att läsa, men tror den funkar bättre i pappersformat.
