  Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley is presented in this unabridged audiobook as a dark, atmospheric journey into obsession, creation, and responsibility. When Victor Frankenstein animates life from dead matter, he unleashes a being who is both terrifying and deeply human—longing for companionship yet driven to rage by rejection. As creator and creature circle each other in fear, guilt, and vengeance, Shelley’s classic Gothic tale explores what it truly means to be a monster, and what happens when ambition outpaces conscience. This audiobook is ideal for listeners who enjoy psychological horror, rich prose, and timeless questions about science, ethics, and the soul.
