We'll feature different titles and authors each month. Come and share your impressions, thoughts and interpretations of a book we have all read.

This week we will be reading Frankestein by Mary Shelley.

Begun when the author was only eighteen, and conceived from a nightmare, Frankenstein is the deeply disturbing story of a monstrous creation which has terrified readers since its first publication in 1818. The novel has seared its way into the popular imagination, and established itself as one of the pioneering works of modern science fiction.
