Shelley was inspired to write the story, often considered the first science fiction story ever written after a visit to the Frankenstein Castle, where, it was believed that two centuries back, an alchemist had conducted experiments. The story traces the life of Victor Frankenstein, a student of sciences at the University Of Ingolstadt, who creates a grotesque humanoid, commonly referred to as the monster in the novel. What follows is a tale of tragedy, isolation, betrayal and absolute horror. Frankenstein, or, The Modern Prometheus has been adapted to film, stage and television, and remains an evergreen classic. Hector Hugh Munro (December 18, 1870November 14, 1916) was a British author who wrote under the pen name, Saki. Hailed as a master of the short story form, Saki is often compared to Dorothy Parker, Anton Chekov, and O. Henry. His beautifully crafted stories, laced with generous doses of sardonic humour, irony, and elements of the macabre, expertly lampoon the hypocrisies of conventional society. Through his stories, he expressed his sympathy with the oppressed, particularly children who are forced to suffer the cruel hegemony of the adult world. With cutting wit, remarkable skill, and clever use of animal imagery, he mocked the popular customs and foibles of Edwardian society and exposed its real face in stories such as Gabriel-Earnest, Laura, and Toberymoy. Many of the characters he createdoutspoken Laura, outrageous Reginald, ambiguous Clovisremain perennial favourites with readers. Surprising, witty, and entertaining, they spring to life on the pages. This collection features some of Sakis finest stories including the Unrest Cure, The Interlopers, Sredni Vashtar, Toberymoy, an The Open Window.
