But these specimens prove imperfect for Victor's purposes. As Victor begins conducting anatomical experiments to reanimate the dead, he at first uses corpses supplied by the coroner.
Afterward, these concepts become an obsession for the young scientist. This haunting and atmospheric novel opens with a heated discussion, as Shelley challenges the conventionally religious Frankenstein to consider his atheistic notions of creation and life. When two nineteenth-century Oxford students-Victor Frankenstein, a serious researcher, and the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley-form an unlikely friendship, the result is a tour de force that could only come from one of the world's most accomplished and prolific authors.
