Frankenstein is one of the most unusual and important novels of the 19th century, as well as one of the most famous. Written in the form of letters, the story is told from several different points of view, which means that the reader learns to see events in complex ways, not always from the same angle as the narrator. It is probably the first ever science fiction novel, too.
