In the summer of
1816,
Mary Wollstonecraft
Godwin, then eighteen years old, began to
write the novel Frankenstein after she and
her lover Percy Bysshe Shelley took part in a
ghost-story competition at Lord Byron's villa
by Lake Geneva. Over the next nine months
-
a period which saw their return to England in
autumn
1816
and subsequent marriage
-
she
(with Percy) drafted the entire novel in a form
materially different from the two standard
editions of
1818
and
1831,
which were based
Until now, no one has been able to read what
Mary Shelley herself initially wrote in this
original draft of the novel. Going back to the
unique draft manuscript of the text held in
the Bodleian Library, Gharles E. Robinson
has teased out Percy Shelley's amendments,
isolating them from the story in Mary Shelley's
hand. Both texts
-
with and without Percy's
interventions
-
are presented in this edition,
allowing us for the first time to read the story
in Mary's original hand and also to see how
Percy edited his wife's prose.
The results are fascinating. We read a more
rapidly paced novel that is arranged in
different chapters. Above all, we hear Mary's
genuine voice, which sounds to us more
modern, more immediately colloquial than
her husband's learned, more polished style.
To this day, Frankenstein remains the most
popular work or science fiction. This edition
story and perceive the act of its creation. |
