Krátky popis
'Do monsters always stay in the book where they were born? Are they
content to live out their lives on paper, and never step foot into
the real world?' The Villa Diodati, on the shore of Lake Geneva,
1816: the Year without Summer. As Byron, Polidori, and Mr and Mrs
Shelley shelter from the unexpected weather, old ghost stories are
read and new ghost stories imagined. Born by the twin brains of the
Shelleys is Frankenstein, one of the most influential tales of
horror of all time.In a remote mountain house, high in the French
Alps, an author broods on Shelley's creation. Reality and
perception merge, fuelled by poisoned thoughts. Humankind makes
monsters, but who really creates who? This is a book about reason,
the imagination, and the creative act of reading and writing.Marcus
Sedgwick's ghostly, menacing novel celebrates the legacy of Mary
Shelley's literary debut in its bicentenary year.
