Soon, the two young men are deep in discussion of electrical science and natural philosophy. Frankenstein begins to contemplate new principles and new beliefs. Frankenstein embarks on his anatomy experiments in a barn in the secluded village of Headington, just outside Oxford. But the cadavers supplied by the local coroner are frequently damaged or decaying, so he moves his coils and fluids to a deserted pottery manufactory in Limehouse. Here he makes contact with the Doomsday men - the resurrectionists - who row across the Thames in the dead of night to bring him the fresh corpses of the recently dead. Spine-chilling narrative and ingeniously clever twists of plot and character." . . "When two nineteenth-century Oxford students - the religious Victor Frankenstein a serious researcher and the atheistic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley - form an unlikely friendship which leads to heated discussions on the notions of creation and life, the result is a tour-de-force from one of the world's most accomplished authors. Filled with literary lights of the day and penned in period-perfect prose this is sure to become a twenty-first century classic." . "The casebook of Victor Frankenstein a novel"@en .

"The Casebook of Victor Frankenstein" . "This volume merges historical fiction with literary license to create an alternative reality in which Victor Frankenstein, the fictional scientist created by Mary Shelley, who, after studying chemical processes and the decay of living beings, gains an insight into the creation of life and gives life to his own creature. Frankenstein was one of Percy Shelley's (who became Mary Shelley's husband) schoolmates and close friends. In this retelling of the legend, Percy is the one who first gives Frankenstein the idea of creating a monster. Soon, both Frankenstein and the Monster are deeply entwined in the lives of the Shelleys and Lord Byron, becoming the cause of many of the strange occurrences that take place in their lives, including the inspiration for Mary Shelley's book. This book is a fascinating blending of Shelley's original novel, pulling occasional direct quotes from it, and a speculation about the real-life people who were involved in its creation." . . . . . . . .
