Frankenstein — Letters from the Ice

93 min

A ship bound for the far north, a stranger found on the ice, and the quiet Geneva childhood he begins to describe.

Retold for sleep from Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley, first published in 1818 and long out of copyright. The story is Shelley's; every sentence here is our own.

Soft, slow, hushed

Soft-spoken and slow, a bedtime-story hush — plain, warm, and easy to come back to.
