About this book

This collection gathers the short fiction of Mary Shelley, best known as the author of Frankenstein. Written mostly for the fashionable literary annuals of the 1820s and 1830s, these tales range widely across history and imagination, from stories of doomed love and buried family secrets to bold experiments with the supernatural, including a famous tale of a man revived after centuries frozen in the ice. They show the same fascination with ambition, isolation, and the limits of human power that runs through her great novel, worked out here in shorter and more varied forms.
