Book Reviews of Frankenstein (Enriched Classics)

Book Review: Great edition for a great price
Summary: 5 Stars

This edition is full of good (though simple) notes on symbol, characters, themes, etc whether you are reading on your own or for class. Highly recommend especially for the price. Great for a class set. I ordered for students at school. 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. 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!) or notes- they have me in class.
