Transformation and other stories (Legend Classics) by Mary Shelley

'But power, in all its shapes, is venerable to man. Awe, curiosity, a clinging fascination, drew me towards him.'

Transformation and other stories showcases the extraordinary talents of Mary Shelley, renowned author of Frankenstein. This collection brings together a series of lesser-known works that delve into themes of power, curiosity, and the darker sides of human nature.

The stories in this volume mesmerise with their compelling characters and thought-provoking narratives. Through a diverse range of tales, Shelley explores the supernatural and the mysterious, capturing the imagination of her readers just as keenly as in her most celebrated novel. This collection is a must-read for anyone who appreciates classic literature and the enduring power of Shelley's storytelling.

About the Author

Mary Shelley was born in 1797, the only daughter of William Godwin the philosopher and writer and Mary Wollstonecraft, the radical author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. Her mother died a few days after her birth. In 1814 she left England with Percy Bysshe Shelley, and married him in 1816 on the death of his wife. She returned to England in 1823 after her husband's death. Shelley is best remembered as the author of Frankenstein, but she wrote several other works including novels, biographies and short stories. She died in 1851.
