Lien reviewed Frankenstein by Mary Shelley (Penguin Classics (Sound Recording))
Sublime in terror
5 stars
Well worth reading. Shelley commands many voices with equal poetry. At times reading it felt bleak, but perhaps that is the result of hubris. Frankenstein opens beautifully. Towards the latter half the plot turns into Victor being sad and everything happens just as you'd expect it to, which lost my interest a little. The end was warmer, it definitely found its direction again.
