What Customers Say About Frankenstein (Enriched Classics):

Honestly, everyone should read it. If you are interested in horror, this book is imperative.

I will switch to the $2 copy from Thrift because it is the 1832 and most students borrow or buy that one, so the class will have the same language.Frankenstein (Dover Thrift Editions) Though it has no dedication page (INSTUMENTAL in understanding her work). It is the 1818 version, which I like better in a lot of ways, but may not be the same as your school's library if that is a concern. I like the three volumes and fewer hints "you will laugh at my allusion" (1832) in the 1818 verses some of the over editing in the 1832. This edition is full of good (though simple) notes on symbol, characters, themes, etc whether you are reading on your own or for class. or notes- they have me in class. Great for a class set. Highly recommend especially for the price. I ordered for students at school.

I should have justwent to books-a-million or barnes and noble.not recommended if needed for school studies. Chapter 2 is in the middle ofchapter 1, and chapter 3 is really chapter 4 its just really confusing.I will never buy an enriched classic again. This book was a waste of money. I had to read this for schooland did horrible on all my quizes because the chapters left outso much information that was needed and changed all the diction it was impossible to understand.

Frankenstein's monster's actions are questionable and everything is overdramatized. Not much to say. Not exactly a "horror" book to me. Ah well; that's the old style of writing for ya. it's Frankenstein. The chapters are arranged oddly (in a series of books rather than ongoing chapters.Personally didn't like the story.

I read this book for an English class I had to take, and it was very helpful.The book not only included the text, but interpretation notes as well which were very helpful.So glad I bought this book.
