Classics Reimagined, Frankenstein

A good size hardcover book with superb illustrations by David Plunkert. I bought this book because I love Plunkert's art, and had already bought his Poe book. I was thrilled when I got this and saw that there are so many full-page, full-color illustrations, and also many smaller ones used as borders and such. Bravo!!!!!

Frankenstein is an excellent classic novel that everyone should read. The novel earns a 5 star rating. However, the Classics Reimagined series is not the best format for this novel. I wanted a hardbound version of the novel, and this may be the best option for the price, but the quality is lackluster. There were several typos in the text (normally these typos were two words that lacked a space between them) and the quality of the covers was poor. I would definitely prefer a more durable cover with a dust jacket rather than an imprinted cover that seems to bend easily at the corners.

Absolutely beautiful book!!!!Bought for my sister as a gift. It has gorgeous colored illustrations! I cannot day enough about how impressed we were with it.

Beautiful artwork along with this wonderful classic tale. My favorite forced college book purchase.

Arrived on time and in great condition. I'm excited to add this beautiful book to my Frankenstein collection. The art is really something, whether or not you've read Frankenstein before, this is a cool experience.

What a great addition to Frankenstein fans. The illustrations are great and honestly for the price, I'm still surprised it was only like $18. Very high quality and a must 200th anniversary edition.

Beautifully rendered and re-designed edition of a horror classic! Clever and illuminating illustrations that hauntingly complement Shelley’s text.

a truly beautiful book, bringing a classic back to life

Classic story beautifully illustrated and printed. I gave this to my sister-in-law as a gift and she loved it. A literary masterpiece, of course. And a lovely edition.

Great gift

Soy un lector voraz, de unos 50-70 libros al año y me encantan las novelas buenas negro-criminales (lo de buenas lo he escrito con toda la intención, pues en la actualidad la inmensa mayoría de las novelas negras.... pues no. Me refiero a C.Himes, J. Thompson, J.Ellroy, James M. Cain, M.Connelly, Manuel V. Montalban, Mankell.. novelas negras buenas vaya) y los clásicos en general. Hay varios libros que me encantan y que si veo alguna edición bonita caigo. A bote pronto me viene a la cabeza, "La isla del tesoro", "Alicia" o "Frankenstein". De éstos unas cuantas ediciones y ésta de Frankenstein es mi 2ª favorita

Es una edicion especial, muy cuidada de "Frankenstein". La parte grafica no deja absolutamente nada que desear, los "inserts" de cuerpo son fenomenales. La portada es una preciosidad, el tacto impresiona mucho.
