Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is an early product of the modern Western world. Written during the Romantic movement of the early 19th century, the book provides insight into issues that are pertinent today. Similar to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust, Shelley's Frankenstein concerns individuals' aspirations and what results when those aspirations are attained irresponsibly.
popularily it is horror, technically it is science-fiction. of some intererest Mary Shelley did not write any other science-fiction romances or novels, just Frankenstein, so the monster work, indeed. a more science-fictional development of related ideas will be found in Donovans Brain and on a sexier node- The Head.
