Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus (version 2 dramatic reading) by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797 - 1851)

Mary Shelley's 1818 novel presents the Faustian story of a man who aspires to create life out of death, with disastrous results. The novel is constructed as a series of first-person narratives, delivered by Captain Robert Walton, Victor Frankenstein, and his Creature, which makes it perfect for a dramatic reading.
