La historia original de uno de los monstruos más famosos de la historia de la literatura. Traducción de Silvia Alemany Vilalta. Introducción de Alberto Manguel. En el verano de 1816, el poeta Percy B. Shelley y su esposa Mary se reunieron con Lord Byron y su médico en una villa a orillas del lago Leman. A instancias de Lord Byron y para animar una velada tormentosa, decidieron que cada uno inventaría una historia de fantasmas. La más callada y reservada, Mary Shelley, dio vida así a quien sería su personaje más famoso: el doctor Frankenstein. Al cabo de un año completaría la novela. La historia es de todos conocida: un científico decide crear una criatura con vida propia a la que luego rechaza. Metáfora sobre la vida, la libertad y el amor, Frankenstein o el moderno Prometeo es una maravillosa fábula con todos los ingredientes de los grandes mitos, un gran clásico que ahora recuperamos con una nueva traducción y precedido de un espléndido estudio de Alberto Manguel sobre la influencia del mito en el imaginario del cine. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The original story of one of the most famous monsters in literary history. Translated by Silvia Alemany Vilalta. Introduction by Alberto Manguel. In the summer of 1816, the poet Percy B. Shelley and his wife Mary met with Lord Byron and his doctor at a villa on the shores of Lake Leman. At Lord Byron's urging, and to liven up a stormy evening, they decided that each would invent a ghost story. The quietest and most reserved, Mary Shelley, thus gave life to what would become her most famous character: Dr. Frankenstein. Within a year, she would complete the novel. The story is well known: a scientist decides to create a creature with a life of its own, which he then rejects. A metaphor for life, freedom, and love, Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus is a wonderful fable with all the ingredients of the great myths, a great classic that we now recover with a new translation and preceded by a splendid study by Alberto Manguel on the influence of myth on the imagination of cinema.Shipping Notes

Not true to size
Size: 8, Color: (100) White/Pomegranate/Rush Red
The shoes are beautiful, same as the picture. Super comfortable and very lightweight, but wait to big, I’m a size 8 and bought a size 8 as usual, I never had any problem with the UA shoes before, this shoes are about 2 inches bigger on my feet. I will return them and order probably a size 6 & 7 to see which one fit better. That’s the only reason I’m not giving a 5 starts!!!!

Great fit, support and quality
Size: 6.5, Color: (101) White/White/Metallic Silver
I bought as a gift for my wife, she loves everything about them, the fit, support, and quality. These are to replace a pair of Under Armor shoes that served her well and lasted a long time.

Not a fashion statement, but the best for my feet
I’ve had these for a year & alternate between these & a pair of Nikes & they’re still in great shape. I tried just about every brand in my hunt for walking/light jogging sneakers, and for me, these were by far the most comfortable, even over $160 New Balances & expensive Diadora & ASICS…Adidas Ultraboost etc. Every foot is different - for me, different shoes press against the inner foot bone uncomfortably, and there’s no issue with that here. The sole is thick & cushiony which I find supportive, and my feet don’t feel overly compressed. There is a nice little bounce which each step. True to size. I’d recommend.

Amazing walking sneakers
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: (001) Black/Black/White, Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: (001) Black/Black/White
Excellent purchase. The size was absolutely correct; they fit my feet perfectly without needing to order a different size. They're also incredibly comfortable from the first wear, ideal for everyday use as well as long walks. The quality feels very good, and the design is exactly as pictured. I would definitely buy them again.
