Balzer + Bray Gris Grimly's Frankenstein
J**N
Accessible and just enough gruesomeness!
I have been teaching Frankenstein by Mary Shelley for 9 years now, and the reading itself is a barrier to many students, as is the thick British accent of many of the audiobook readers. This version makes an important story into an easy read. The art is fantastic, too, and emphasizes the gothic elements to add that gruesome feel to the whole scenario. Creepy enough to interest, but still not gratuitous. I'm trying to find money to by a classroom set now!

Great addition to any Frankenstein fan's library.
Gorgeous artwork! The price fluctuates often so wait until it dips and it's a win‐win-win situation.

good book
The book has grotesque illustration for which Grimly is famed, befitting the theme. The sepia tones highlight the 19th century.

Gris Grimly grande
Me encanta Grimly.. Me lo pillé en inglés y luego lo sacó Planeta en español... Tanto correr, tanto correr... bueno, pero me costó casi la mitad.
