Frankenstein Keychain Fidget-2.5

*Frankenstein*, written by Mary Shelley and first published in 1818, is a Gothic novel that explores themes of ambition, science, and morality. It tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist who becomes obsessed with creating life. He constructs a creature using parts of dead bodies, but upon bringing it to life, he is horrified by the result and abandons it. 

The creature, often mistakenly called "Frankenstein," struggles with loneliness, rejection, and a desire for companionship. It becomes bitter and seeks revenge on its creator, leading to tragedy for both Frankenstein and those he loves.

The novel raises questions about the responsibilities of creators, the dangers of unchecked ambition, and the ethical implications of scientific advancement. Shelley's work is often seen as one of the earliest examples of science fiction and remains a classic today.
