Mary Shelley: The Invisible Girl
Mary Shelley’s short story “The Invisible Girl” tells the adventure of a traveler who, disoriented during a storm, finds refuge in a seemingly abandoned and ruined tower. Inside, he discovers a surprisingly cozy atmosphere and an enigmatic portrait of a young woman called “The Invisible Girl.” Intrigued by the place, the man asks a local woman for more information about it. The woman reveals a story of love, pain, and mystery, which connects a series of characters and explains the reason for such a peculiar construction. “The Invisible Girl” is a work in which the author of Frankenstein mixes the gothic with the romantic to deliver a tragic and moving story.
