Against a time of radical change, a gothic masterpiece was written by the teenage Mary Shelley. Published in 1818, Frankenstein takes us into a dark world where man and monster meet in mutual torment. A world of raw, animalistic fear. How was this story influenced by the tragedies in Mary Shelley's own life, and the early 19th century obsessions with playing God? Edited by Tomos Delargy. Produced by Stuart Beckwith. Senior Producer is Charlotte Long. Please vote for us for Listeners' Choice at the British Podcast Awards! Follow this link, and don’t forget to confirm the email. Thank you!
