Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley, in the classic Wordsworth paperback edition.
Mary Shelley was just eighteen when she began writing Frankenstein. I've always thought that was extraordinary. Here was a young woman imagining a scientist who discovers how to create life, only to find himself terrified of what he has made.
First published in 1818, the novel helped establish modern science fiction. But beneath its frightening reputation is a story about responsibility, rejection, loneliness, and what happens when ambition outruns compassion.
I selected this Wordsworth Classics paperback as an accessible edition of a book that still gives readers so much to think about.

FAQs
WHAT IS A GICLEÉ PRINT?
Giclee printing is currently the highest quality standard for printing single or limited edition prints. The term "giclee"(pronounced "ZHEE-CLAY")is a French word meaning "to spray." Giclee prints are created by spraying millions of droplets of ink onto archival fine-art substrates. The word "giclee," as a fine-art term, has come to be associated with prints using fade-resistant archival pigmented inks printed on archival substrates by professional inkjet printers. Giclee prints represent the highest evolution in printmaking technology. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy and richer depth of color than other means of art reproduction possible.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT ABOUT THE PRINT QUALITY?
A great gicleé print begins with a great image. We proudly use a privately owned giclee printing company founded in 2003 that services the fine art and photography markets. They have gained international recognition with featured articles about their services in Digital Ouput Magazine, Digital Photo Pro Magazine and on the Oprah show. Osio-Brown Editions is one of the original giclee printing studios in the Chicago area and is a preeminent force in the fine art giclee printing industry. Their client list extends throughout the United States, Central & South America and Europe.
WHAT ABOUT FRAMING?
