"The Making of Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein'" by Daisy Hay is a concise and visually appealing book that provides an overview of the history of Mary Shelley's famous novel. The book covers major themes, the novel's reception, and the life of the author. It is published by the Bodleian Library, which owns the manuscript of 'Frankenstein,' and is well-designed and durable. While the book offers valuable insights, some readers may take issue with the author's tendency to specify what Shelley leaves unsaid and the use of Mary Shelley's first name only. Overall, it is a recommended resource for those interested in learning more about 'Frankenstein.' [Extracted from the article]
