Frankissstein by Jeanette Winterson review – a dazzling reanimation of Shelley’s novel | Fiction.

“Actually, Frankenstein was the name of the scientist, not the monster.” Has any other pedantic literary clarification become so ingrained, so frequently repeated, as to attain the status of near-parody? As is often the case, an overly familiar truth at times obscures a more interesting one. In fact, neither Victor Frankenstein nor his reanimated creation is the “real” monster – that honour belongs to the book itself. Mary Shelley’s novel has long outgrown her humble aim of writing a frightening story to enliven a rain-soaked Swiss holiday. This deathless artistic afterlife is both inspiring and cautionary. The troubling ramifications of technological advancement are rapidly becoming a central preoccupation of contemporary British fiction.

Jeanette Winterson’s latest novel, Frankissstein, makes space for itself in a crowded field thanks to a deeply pertinent engagement with hybridity. ComputingAtSchoolReadingList. MrsStavesSuggestions.
