A Metamodern Prometheus

The summer of 1816 was wet and ungenial, as Mary Shelley describes it. But that summer on Lake Geneva spent telling ghost stories with her Romantic coterie birthed Frankenstein, a monstrous creation that has taken on a life of its own. A Metamodern Prometheus is adapted from Shelley’s introduction to the 1832 edition of Frankenstein and imagines the events that lead to the creation of this classic of horror.
