Reading Comprehension, Vocabularies, Tenses, and Passive Voice


Text 1 for no. 1 5
It was the dawn of science and technology.
Anything seemed possibleeven the creation of life
itself. Victor Frankenstein becomes obsessed with this
idea and works relentlessly to prove his theories; but
the glory he imagined becomes a living nightmare not
only for him, but for his friends and family too.
Mary
Shelley's
gothic
horror
story
Frankensteinwas first published in 1818 and has been
the inspiration behind numerous stage productions and
films many of which strayed a long way away from her
original masterpiece. Classical Comics presenting a full
color graphic novel remains true to this classic tale,
bringing the original story to life which has never been
created before.
This graphic novel is available in two versions:
Original Text and Quick Text editions. The Original Text
stays faithful to Shelley's original text, while the Quick
Text brings the story up to date by presenting the text
into a more simplified style so that the tale is accessible
to all readers.
The Quick Text edition will allow you to soak up
a general feeling for the characters and locations, while
the Original Text version will help you easily slip into the
language in which the novel was written.
Even if you're not studying the original, this
graphic novel is worth buying. It's a great story, and
should be one that everyone has the chance to read.
Now, thanks to this release, even those who don't
particularly like to read too much are given the chance
to find this tale and hopefully it may encourage them to
search out the original book too.
As with previous Classical Comics, the
presentation is first class. The best grade glossy paper
really helps to set this graphic novel head and shoulders
above the usual comic book releases on the market.
Not only that, you also get a pretty comprehensive
biography of Shelley; Mary Shelley's Family Tree; a
feature that explains what life was like in the year of
the book's release; and a brief look on how
Frankenstein has been adapted to many different
formats over the years.
