This biography explores the life and legacy of Mary Shelley, the author of the groundbreaking novel 'Frankenstein.' It delves into her early life, her relationship with the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the circle of intellectuals she was part of, including Lord Byron. The book examines the circumstances that led to the creation of 'Frankenstein' during a summer spent in Geneva, and how the novel's themes reflected the scientific and philosophical discussions of the time. As the first work to explore the concept of creating life through scientific means, 'Frankenstein' is often considered the first science fiction novel. The biography also discusses the impact of Mary Shelley's work on literature and its enduring influence on the science fiction genre. Joan Nichols provides insight into Shelley's pioneering role as a female writer in the early 19th century and her contribution to literature as we understand it today.
