“This volume includes the complete weird writings of Mary Shelley (1797–1851), who wrote the imperishable novel Frankenstein before she was twenty. This novel not only is a pioneering weird tale but also a foundational work of science fiction; its provocative notion that human life can be created in the laboratory is rich in complex moral overtones. Shelley went on to write shorter weird tales, including the reanimation stories ‘Valerius’ and ‘Roger Dodsworth’; ‘Transformation,’ a story of psychic transference; and ‘The Mortal Immortal,’ about the quest for eternal life.” This is a print-on-demand edition. #62457
