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.
