  Frankenstein Retold Inclusively

  Mary Shelley, Kath Shone

  Frankenstein was written in the Romantic literary period. The literary trend of the early 1800s produced poems that described how nature elevated and blissed human minds. Most literary work at this time was written and published by men. 
  In amongst these ecstatic reveries of nature, the 19 year old, Mary Shelley wedged the chilling story of Frankenstein into the literary landscape and our minds forever. 
  Her story filled an empty space in humankind's collective consciousness. That empty space was waiting for this story of over-reaching scientific madness. 
  This version of Frankenstein is a translation not an abridged telling. I have translated the Old Romantic era English into easy-to-read accessible English. 
  • The same characters say the same things at the same times in the story. 
  • Plot point for plot point the story stays the same. 
  • The themes are all preserved. 
  • The transcendent and brutal settings of the story are still on the pages. 
  • References to poems and other literature are explained. 
  • Supplementary information supports understanding of the text. 
  This book is for 
  • humans who like to read archetypal literature in easy-to-read language, 
  • neuro-diverse readers, 
  • young readers, 
  • English second language speakers, 
  • English literature students who need a study guide to unravel the original Frankenstein. 
  • anyone (I think that's most of us) who finds old English inaccessible but would like to read Frankenstein. 
  This accessible Frankenstein is part of Inclusive Books (Inc!Bs) journey to rewrite history inclusively.

  To have logic, to reason things out, to have a sense of what is and isn’t and what can and can’t is one of the traits we identify with being human. 
   
  Sad to say that sometimes there are some amongst us who lose touch with this function, are unable to bring order and control to their world.  That is not only a tragedy for themselves but can also have horrific consequences on those around them. 
   
  Our wordsmiths in this volume, including Leo Tolstoy,  Anatole France, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Barry Pain and others explore and exploit their stories and characters in a quest to share and shape our view and experience of what it may be like inside the Mind of Madness.
