The idea that eternal life can be the worst of curses, a possibility more horrifying than visions of demons and monsters, is typical of the English writer Mary Shelley: man, in trying to twist his destiny, out of vanity or greed, creates his own hell. In this story, the protagonist, an immortal young man, watches his beloved age, flees from one place to another to avoid being accused of being a warlock, suffers the impossibility of making new friends, and longs for death. An exemplary fantastic work, it has been the subject of multiple readings and interpretations.
