Frankenstein

Frankenstein o el moderno Prometeo

A scientist builds a man out of dead flesh and brings him to life — then can't stand to look at what he's made.

Mary Shelley's 1818 novel, told for Level 4. Victor Frankenstein achieves what he always dreamed of and abandons it in horror the same night, and the creature he refuses to name spends the rest of the book learning exactly what that abandonment costs them both.
