scary combined with literature studies, wild imagination, and
dream of a young age of 19 years.
From Dreams of Nature
Story
It started from the experience of the real Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin
(Let Shelley) in a summer 1816 at a castle in
edge of Lake Geneva, Switzerland. The castle was the residence of a poet
famous Lord Byron. At that time Mary (still 19 years old) and her lover
English poet Percy Shelley visited there at the invitation of Lord
Byron.
Night
weather was bad with heavy rain, lightning and storm raged outside
walls of old stone buildings. The three artists write it together
near the fireplace. They talked casually in temaran warmth
and flame snaking.
Weather
ill make them saturated, because they can not move out. Then
one evening, Byron challenged his guests to write a
gripping stories, each one writing. All three also agreed and
started writing them in there to fill time.
In
One night with the storm that still roaring out there, Mary
already asleep suddenly woke up from a nightmare disorder. He
absurdly shocked when they hear the thunder roar out there.
Sweat was pouring in his body. The nightmare seemed real to him,
so vivid and frightening.

Once able to control herself, Mary was grabbed paper and pen.
Before dawn that day he began writing his fingers under dim
shining lights dim. He wrote down details of his dreams
in a story.

Here's some partial quotation: "We lay on top of my head
pillow, I could not sleep much less think ... I saw a pair of eyes,
with a look that painful. I see a pale student
silently kneeling beside something. I saw a shadow
a man who stretches nearby, then a big machine in the room
shows the reaction of signs of life, of panels
move as a pointer of a reaction from the figure on the side
students. Really scary, an awesome power
as a result of a human effort to form something
cipataan stunning in the world! "
And
Mary won the stakes between them. Authorship derived
from the nightmare that was later written in the form of novel
published two years later. And legendary as the story of Frankenstein
until this day!.
