In 1817, during an expedition to the North Pole, Robert Walton encounters a mysterious individual adrift on a piece of ice floe. This man is none other than Victor Frankenstein, a scientist with a tragic destiny who managed to breathe life into a creature made from pieces of corpses. Junji Ito revisits Mary Shelley's iconic work in this faithful and horrific adaptation of a seminal Gothic novel. Also included are ten short stories by the master of horror, including six tales of Oshikiri, a taciturn high school student who lives in a huge mansion that has become the scene of increasingly terrifying paranormal phenomena. The master of horror revisits one of literature's masterpieces: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein! This edition features a preface by Joann Sfar (Donjon, The Rabbi's Cat, Little Vampire...) and an analysis at the end of the book by Morolian, a French-speaking specialist on the author. This work, containing numerous bonuses, is part of a large-format, carefully crafted collection dedicated to the master of horror.
