Review of 'Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus' on 'Goodreads'

Yet another book in the "why on earth did I take so long to read it" class.

Love it, though I will admit to being depressed almost from the very beginning. And it only got worse as the book went on.

A Gothic classic in every sense of the word (except maybe the architectural).
