About this ebook
Junji Ito meets Mary Shelley! The master of horror manga bends all his skill into bringing the anguished and solitary monster—and the fouler beast who created him—to life with the brilliantly detailed chiaroscuro he is known for.
Also included are six tales of Oshikiri—a high school student who lives in a decaying mansion connected to a haunted parallel world. Uncanny doppelgangers, unfortunately murdered friends, and a whole lot more are in store for him.
Bonus: The Ito family dog! Thrill to the adventures of Non-non Ito, an adorable Maltese!

This is a fantastic retelling of Frankenstein, that only improves with each other iteration you watch or read; combining and recontextualising some of the most popular and important elements into what feels simultaneously like a very old myth and incredibly fresh story. Junji Ito's lovecraftian authorial tone is still intact and seems to only improve with each story he produces. Frankenstein also happens to include some of my favorite art in his books thus far, specifically when drawing our favorite monster.
