Definitely in my "top five of all time" list.
It marks the beginning of all science fiction literature btw
.....and it was by a woman at a time when women weren't supposed to write anything thought provoking or against religion or 'family values' etc.......
You don't get better than a text that mixes Freudian theory, dead things and questions on reproduction and the scientific creation of life......all this in 1818. Very cool.
Now go read The History of Sexuality by Foucault or Nineteen Eighty-Four by Orwell.
