Frankenstein was written in the Romantic literary period. This 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.

Frankenstein was written in the Romantic literary period. This 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 • neuro-diverse readers, • young readers, • English second language speakers, • humans who like to read archetypal literature in easy-to-read language, • 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.
