ABOUT THE BOOK
Intermediate Level
(Adapted by John Turvey)

People read Frankenstein as a story of fear and danger, but Mary Shelley expressed in it beliefs that were important to her. She believed that human beings are naturally good. They become evil only because society makes them lie and cheat and behave badly. In Mary Shelley's book, Frankenstein has tried to create "the perfect man", but he is ugly, so ugly that people fear and hate him. Society produced the dangerous Monster instead of the perfect man.
