Science Fiction
Attempting to create life through dreadful experiments, Henry Frankenstein and Dr. Pretorius instead created unspeakable horror: two misshapen monsters, a brutish male and his female mate, stitched together from the bodies of cadavers. Crafted to be the monsterβs brideβan undead Eve to an equally accursed Adamβthe female creature was destroyed mere minutes after taking its fi rst breathβor was it? This new novel by the critically acclaimed Elizabeth Hand reinterprets the memorable characters from Universal Pictureβs classic 1935 fi lm for a new generation of horror fans. Detailing the bride of Frankensteinβs secret history, from the shadows of forgotten laboratories to the streets of Weimar Germany, Hand creates a richly atmospheric tale of horror and tragedy as chilling as the creature itself.
