Frankenstein, The Sea of Ice

142 min

A climb to a glacier above the clouds, a meeting on the ice, and a stranger's own account of his first days in the world.

Retold for sleep from Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley, first published in 1818 and long out of copyright. The story is Shelley's; every sentence here is our own.
