Book Description
The novel Frankenstein holds iconic status in the feminist canon of English Literature, as its professed author is Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. However, many experts today contend that Mary’s husband – poet, dramatist, novelist and essayist Percy Bysshe Shelley – wrote at least 5,000 words of the book. In Shelley Unbound, Scott De Hart presents evidence that the author of Frankenstein is Percy alone. DeHart’s investigation into Frankenstein and the lives of Mary Wollstonecraft and Percy Shelley results in an inconvenient truth regarding an early example of the feminist canon.
