About the Book

Taking a step back from the well known and beloved Hollywood version of Mary Shelley’s groundbreaking creation, this edition of Frankenstein will approach the story of the creator’s original concept of Frankenstein’s Monster – a self-reflection of the darker side of Victor and, therefore, the reader. Each chapter of this edition will have an original line illustration chapter header created in the traditional style of artists such as Edmund Dulac and Arthur Rackham from the early to mid 1900’s and will be accompanied by four hand tipped-in color plates revealing to the viewer the journey of the monster from conception to birth to self-awareness and finally to the acceptance of mortality and solitude.
Never before has such an interpretation of this character been produced in this fashion. If successful, this edition will be the first in a three-part series focusing on the creator’s of what we today call horror – the next volume being an Illuminated edition of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
