Mary Shelley: Complete Novels (Ribbon Classics)

This definitive collection gathers together the complete novels of one of the most visionary and influential writers of the Romantic era.

Blending Gothic atmosphere, philosophical inquiry, psychological intensity, and early science fiction imagination, Mary Shelley's novels explore the boundaries of ambition, creation, isolation, morality, and the human condition. Her works examine the dangers of unchecked power, the fragility of social bonds, and the profound emotional consequences of exile and longing.

From storm-lashed landscapes and ruined castles to speculative futures and historical settings, these novels reveal the remarkable range of Shelley's imagination. Beyond her most famous creation, her fiction spans apocalyptic vision, historical romance, political reflection, and deeply personal meditations on loss and survival.

Included in this volume:

Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus (1818)

Valperga (1823)

The Last Man (1826)

The Fortunes of Perkin Warbeck (1830)

Lodore (1835)

Falkner (1837)

Darkly atmospheric, intellectually daring, and emotionally powerful, these novels helped shape Gothic literature, proto–science fiction, and modern speculative storytelling. This edition presents the complete, unabridged texts in one comprehensive volume.
