From 1991, here’s a simplified edition of Frankenstein serving as an English study guide for Turkish readers.
The cover by Kemal references the classic scene in James Whale’s 1931 movie where The Monster menaces Elizabeth on her wedding day. The crewcut Creature in the frayed sweater snarls like Karloff does in the film.
Thanks to Deniz Pinar of Turkish Posters.
