Über den Autor
Mary Shelley (1797-1851) eloped with the poet Percy Shelley at the age of sixteen. Three years later, during a wet summer on Lake Geneva, she wrote her masterpiece, Frankenstein. After the tragic loss of three of her four children and drowning of Percy Shelley in Italy, she returned to England and continued to write until her own death.
