thanks for this. I don't understand why people put up the lengths of the chapters instead of making markers to get directly to the chapters like you do here. Thanks for the audiobook, though, whoever made and uploaded it.
By age 19 she wrote a book that has been reproduced in dozens of movies and retold thousands of time, and really, started a Genre, what have i done.... I would not dare criticize this immortal writer. After all my great grand children will know more about her than about me. This is actually true for most people.
Such a depressing, but extremely well written novel! I could very easily come to love listening to audio book of famous novels, Thank you for providing the access to the audio that isn't read by an influent in speech person like some of the other versions I've tried to listen to! :)
It is easy to imagine Cori Samuel as Mary Shelley reading this to Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, and Claire Clairmont one evening in Geneva as they gathered together after dinner. A lovely reading!
No no no no no no NO! Why does it have to end like that? Never before have I felt so devastated by the way a story ends. No one should live and die without having felt someone's love. Thank you very much for reading this story, by the way. Now excuse me while I cry some more.
People do and not only made men. We are what we create. Dr. Frankenstein did a monstrous thing and he paid for it. Unfortunately, others who had done no wrong paid for his misdeeds, also. What made him think he could make a creature from broken parts, loveless and abandoned and just get on with his own happy life⁉️ That a creature he made from the dead, who had no equal, no companion, no society and naturally rejected as horrible should adore him. Paradise lost!
I too genuinely love classic literature and so chose to do this for my literature coursework. So I am a student being asked to look into it but I chose to do it because of my love for literature.
Nah bro, I'm being forced. I'd rather read a book on odd and long since extinct creatures, along with facts about them. But I respect the peeps that enjoy this.
Pairing these audiobooks with soft music makes them truly magical. Creepypasta narrations really had the right idea. I recommend the Dark Somnium or Myuu.
First of all I got to say I love you Cori Samuels. I have read and listened to this book so many times I could nearly quote it. I definitely prefer this, the 1818 version, over the latter version which had defiled fingers alter the text. One of my favorite scenes Is the trial and death of Justine. In particular, the dialogue of Elizabeth while she visits Justine in prison.
Thank you for uploading this! Frankenstein what a masterpiece of literature, Merry shelly extraordinary writer, her work immortal to thousands and thousands of generations to come.
same?? for me, chapter 2 here is chapter 3 in my copy that I got from my local bookstore, and there are parts in it that have a lot more detail than what my book has. I'm so confused....
The letter and chapter shortcuts in the description bar don't match up with the actual video. If you're looking for a section don't clink on the links, they won't bring you to where you want to start.
Written by Mary shelley, woman who outshined her established husband who was also a writer! Mary shelley born from Mary Wollstonecraft, one of if not the first radical woman writer in history. It is male dominated because men are interested in the material. Women have chosen to be interested in other things. And that’s fine. Keep on reading and you’ll see how much women have done and created. So much that the world ignores and chooses not to focus on. And then point at men and criticize them.
The English language is very expressive we have some difficult word's you have done very well I used to read to shut my mind off from pain, I wasn't well from a young boy and had a lot of injuries so reading sort of distracts my mind a little
I've also written a story about a monster, in this case a strange, primeval, fire-breathing creature that lurks in a Scottish Loch, entitled THE CREATURE FROM THE DEEP, that is part of my story collection, SEVEN TALL TALES; available at Amazon as a book or a kindle. And, like Frankenstein, it may well be that humans had had a hand in the creation of that creature. It is a more humorous and comic story than Frankenstein, and on a more modest scale, and involves the investigation on the part of two rather seedy private eyes, into the truth about the Creature. Indeed the two detectives, seeing the dynamic effect that news and publicity about that marine monster has had on the local tourist trade, suspect that the creature is not quite what it appears to be, and that there could be more to it than meets the eye. You might find it amusing. Happy listening, and reading
Bro, as soon as I read "fire-breathing creature" and "the creature from the deep" first thought was the nether. 🤣 Fr though I'm a student forced to be here, and I'd rather read your story then this high level sleep spell.
In case anyone else got bored and wants to skip the letters + nothpole-/childhood-/educationtalk, and get straight to the point where the monster is mentioned for the first time: Volume 1 Chapter 4. You're welcome.
Frankenstein is the most selfish bastard on the planet. I think when we read things in the first person we always imagine the narrator to be sane, maybe because we almost imagine them to be us? But if you were a fly on the wall watching him doing all this, you would think wtf are you doing.

thank u so much
you the real MVP.
You have no idea how amazing this is, thank you!
Thank you SOOOOO MUCH!!!
Thank you!!!!!
the reader is magnificent. a soft and soothing voice as if read by Mary Shelley herself to her friends. love it
Aside from her pronunciation of chimera…yes it’s quite good lol
By age 19 she wrote a book that has been reproduced in dozens of movies and retold thousands of time, and really, started a Genre, what have i done.... I would not dare criticize this immortal writer. After all my great grand children will know more about her than about me. This is actually true for most people.
Cringed like a bitch when reading this.
Well said
This is a scary thought...
@@gooeynick5639 💀 why tho
Nevermind, you probably don't remember why after 5 years
Have to read this for English class it's so much easier to listen to an audiobook than to read so thank you
JamesME Dalton did you have to do a journal ??
Mary Shelley really likes the words 'wretched' and 'countenance'
+Mick W and "singular" as an adjective.
+Mick W and 'by degrees'. that one is so common!
haha yea you can't help but notice how often she used those words
I bet these were Percy's words, since he liked the less common versions so much.
The creature, as a creature, shows itself as a creature of great creature.
me watching this cause I have a test on it in 16 hours:
*2x speed*
Hahaha
me *cry*
Same
Did you pass your test?
A
@@michaelward9167 yep haha!
Such a depressing, but extremely well written novel! I could very easily come to love listening to audio book of famous novels, Thank you for providing the access to the audio that isn't read by an influent in speech person like some of the other versions I've tried to listen to! :)
This narrator has such a wonderful voice. I'm very happy to have found this audiobook.
Is it just me or is Frankenstein just a terribly irresponsible scientist and friend?
What gave you that idea? lol
Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh It's totally you
That's the whole point of the story... the human is truly weak and ugly inside where the monster habours within intellect, wisdom and compassion
Whaaaaaa?
I love this Movie xxx
What a lovely voice.
A book about me? Yay! :D
It took my longer than I care to admit to get that joke XD
Our sentiments exactly!
Just 3 more hours to go- I swear I love reading guys but forcing myself to get through the first 60 pages without the audio book was so painful.
literally me right now haha
Alas, benevolence, wretchedness. She really love those words :P
almost as much as Lovecraft Loved the word Queer
I loved listening to this, Cori Samuel has a lovely reading voice that I am sure Mary Shelley would approve of.
I enjoyed your reading of FRANKENSTEIN! I seldom have time to read a novel. Thank you for allowing me to enjoy a classic while I do my chores!
Thank you so much for posting this story GreatestAudioBooks. I've been wanting to read it for along time. 😀
I love Cori Samuel's voice. I could listen to her read an Algebra book.
Mike Vieira I actalually did listen to her read an algebra book
I'd be content just to listen to her say "the world" repeatedly
Bro, the voice plus math? That's a flipping sleep spell, high level too.
I was listening to this for two hours before I realized the character was a man and not a woman.
ah thanks for the heads up lmao
I mean the author's a woman so in some respects this narration is more faithful.
It is easy to imagine Cori Samuel as Mary Shelley reading this to Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, and Claire Clairmont one evening in Geneva as they gathered together after dinner. A lovely reading!
No no no no no no NO! Why does it have to end like that? Never before have I felt so devastated by the way a story ends. No one should live and die without having felt someone's love. Thank you very much for reading this story, by the way. Now excuse me while I cry some more.

An amazing and always timely classic. The kind of book every author longs to write.
I quite enjoyed this reading, especially the correct and lilting period voicing by the superb Cori Samuel. Brava.
Is there anybody listening because they genuinely love classic literature, and not because they're a student being forced to?
I love classic literature ! I’m in grad school for engineering but I’m listening to this because I want to :)
I too genuinely love classic literature and so chose to do this for my literature coursework. So I am a student being asked to look into it but I chose to do it because of my love for literature.

I need something deadly boring to sleep. Hope it helps
Biochemist … love literature and writing. The English language is a beautiful and marvelous creation. I have my alias misspelled on purpose!
I thought that Cori did a great job on this narration and kept me hooked all the way through.
The prose is so passive, I had to increase the video speed just to keep awake. Thank god for modern writing principles.
.20 seconds in and I’m already asleep
really me rn

“Defiled fingers alter the text” been a while since a comment was so eloquently delivered in my recent experiences! That was a delightful sight
It's not hard to imagine the reader being Mary Shelley herself.
Thank you for uploading this! Frankenstein what a masterpiece of literature, Merry shelly extraordinary writer, her work immortal to thousands and thousands of generations to come.
I have a reading check tomorrow that I thought was Friday so I’m so glad I found this!!
why do i get the feeling 4 hours gets spent telling where this was recorded or long pauses..
lmao right

Came here after watching the streaming of Frankenstein on National Theatre, played by Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller
Thank you for uploading this audio book.
Great praise for the reader.! A lovely voice and clear pronunciation.
Any other students being forced to listen to this here? ;‐;
Nvm, they said listen to 15 minutes... They never said I can't speed it up >:3
I liked it very much. Very well written in my opinion. Thank you for the narrative. It is very helpful.
Mary Wollstonecraft was her mother. The author of Frankenstein was Mary (maiden name Godwin) Shelley.
50minutes left. I can do this!
Great to finally know the original story. I enjoyed it.

Thank you, that was beautifully read .
This literally doesn't match up with any of the chapters in my school's version of the book.
same?? for me, chapter 2 here is chapter 3 in my copy that I got from my local bookstore, and there are parts in it that have a lot more detail than what my book has. I'm so confused....
This is a reading of the uncensored 1818-version -- you probably have the better-known 1831-version.
I usually prefer male voices for audiobook, but this here is superior to other narators
Absolutely beautiful! Well done!
I wish I was worthy to even comment on such a beautiful sublime narrative. Thank you ☺️
Thanks so much for posing this - 3:04:13
Nice job, you have a very nice voice.
Thank you. I do my best!
