Program Description

Description

Mary Shelley became a prominent figure in the world of literary arts, primarily due to her remarkable novel, Frankenstein. It was published while she was still a teenager, and during her marriage to the radical Romantic poet, Percy Shelley. This program explores her marriage and her unflagging efforts to immortalize her husband’s poetry after his untimely death. It also examines the other books she wrote, including the eerily timely novel, The Last Man that looks at the effects of a devastating viral pandemic and the resulting political, social and economic collapse –– ahead of the times. Her life-story is an inspiring one!
