A climb to a glacier above the clouds, a meeting on the ice, and a stranger's own account of his first days in the world.
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.
Frankenstein — The Sea of Ice is a sleep story from Salūs — a long bedtime story for adults, read slowly at a bedtime pace.
Salūs is an ad-free sleep and meditation app for iOS and Android — hundreds of guided sessions, long bedtime stories for adults and 325 free sleep sounds. Every session is signed off by our BSc (Hons) & MSc Psychology team.
