The Gothic novel "Falkner: A Novel" was written by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, the woman most recognized for creating "Frankenstein." "Falkner" is one of Shelley's less well-known pieces, having been published in 1837. The book examines topics of atonement, remorse, and the results of one's deeds. Falkner, the protagonist of the tale, is a young man tormented by a sinister mystery from his past. Falkner is seen to be troubled with remorse over a crime he committed years' prior as the story progresses. He withdraws from society in an effort to find a way to atone for his transgressions and to clear his conscience. Falkner travels throughout Europe, stopping in places like Italy and Switzerland. He meets a number of people that have a big impact on his life along the road, like the fascinating and mysterious Madame de St???el. The book explores Falkner's inner struggle and the effects of his actions on others around him as he battles his inner demons. In "Falkner," Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley tells a story of suspense, moral reflection, and the search for redemption. Though not as well-known as "Frankenstein," the book exhibits Shelley's investigation of nuanced human emotions and the fallout from previous errors.
