The Man Who Wrote Frankenstein

The Man Who Wrote Frankenstein is a 2007 book about poet Percy Bysshe Shelley by John Lauritsen, who argues that Shelley, not his wife Mary Shelley, was the real author of Frankenstein.

Germaine Greer dismissed Lauritsen's thesis, writing that while he argues that Mary Shelley was not well educated enough to have written it, Frankenstein is not "a good, let alone a great" novel and that it does not deserve the attention it has been given.
