Frankenstein (Deluxe)

release date: Oct 01, 2015
Frankenstein (Deluxe)
Capolavoro della letteratura gotica affermatosi con rara potenza nell'immaginario collettivo, dalla sua pubblicazione nel 1818 il romanzo di Mary Shelley non ha mai smesso di eccitare la fantasia di lettori e artisti di tutto il mondo. Opera fondamentale per lo sviluppo del genere horror e di quello fantascientifico, la storia del giovane Frankenstein che riesce a dar vita a una "creatura" assemblata con parti di cadaveri colpisce ancora oggi per l'attualità delle questioni affrontate, dalla sfida dell'uomo ai limiti posti dalla natura al desiderio di poter sfuggire alla morte. In questa edizione di pregio, il mondo perturbante del romanzo trova perfetta rappresentazione nelle visioni di Lynd Ward, tra i fondatori della graphic novel statunitense, definito dallo stesso Art Spiegelman "uno dei più eminenti e completi artisti americani": le sue tavole, straordinarie per drammaticità e forza plastica, esaltano le atmosfere e gli scenari attraverso cui si svolge la folle caccia tra Frankenstein e il mostro, fissando in maniera indelebile la grandiosa visionarietà di un'opera immortale
