Sobre IBD

En una época de descubrimientos científicos y ambiciones desbordadas, el joven Víctor Frankenstein desafía los límites de la vida y la muerte al crear una criatura a partir de restos humanos. Lo que comienza como un experimento brillante se convierte pronto en una pesadilla: al abrir los ojos, el ser que ha construido revela una profunda necesidad de afecto… y un dolor insoportable al ser rechazado por su creador y por el mundo.En esta lucha entre padre e hijo, creador y creación, Mary Shelley explora la responsabilidad moral, el deseo de conocimiento y el abismo que se abre cuando el ser humano juega a ser Dios. Publicada en 1818, Frankenstein es una obra maestra del romanticismo gótico y una de las primeras novelas de ciencia ficción. Más que una historia de terror, es una profunda reflexión sobre la humanidad, el rechazo y la necesidad desesperada de ser amado.
