First Edition of Frankenstein

I had to read Frankenstein by Mary Shelley in 7th grade English with Mrs. Zarter. (I think…anyone familiar care to confirm?) Great reminder that I’d like to read it again.

A first edition of Frankenstein went for $1.17 million at a recent Christie’s auction. It was estimated that it would fetch $200,000 - $300,000 (errrrrr…), and now "...the book set a record for the highest price paid for a published work by a woman."
