‘Transformation’ (1831) is a short story by English writer Mary Shelley, famous for her best-selling novel ‘Frankenstein’. Having squandered his wealth, Guido returns to claim the hand of the beautiful Juliet, but his petulant behaviour sees him banished. While Guido plots his revenge, a strange, disturbing figure emerges from the stormy sea and makes him an offer; Will Guido agree to swap bodies for three days?
A tale of greed, identity and love, ‘Transformation’ is Mary Shelley at her Gothic horror best.
Mary Shelley (1797–1851) was an English author and travel writer best known for her ground-breaking Gothic novel ‘Frankenstein’ (1818). Considered one of the first true works of science-fiction, the book became an instant bestseller.
It has been adapted for TV, stage and film on many occasions, with Boris Karloff famously playing Frankenstein’s monster on screen in 1933. Other adaptations include ‘Mary Shelley's Frankenstein’ (1994) starring Kenneth Branagh and Robert De Niro and ‘Viktor Frankenstein’ (2015) starring Daniel Radcliffe and James McAvoy. Shelley’s other novels include Valperga (1823), The Last Man (1826), Perkin Warbeck (1830), Lodore (1835), Falkner (1837) and the posthumously published Mathilde (1959). However, she will always be remembered as the creator of Frankenstein. The book continues to influence filmmakers, writers and popular culture to this day, inspiring and terrifying new audiences the world over.
