Mary Shelley was an English novelist, best known for her Gothic novel “Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus,” published in 1818. She was born on August 30, 1797, in London, and was the daughter of the political philosopher William Godwin and the feminist Mary Wollstonecraft. Shelley’s most famous work, “Frankenstein,” explores themes of science, morality, and the consequences of playing god.
She wrote other novels as well, including “The Last Man” and “Mathilda,” but none achieved the same level of success as “Frankenstein.” Mary Shelley’s life was marked by personal tragedies, including the deaths of her husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and their children. She passed away on February 1, 1851, leaving behind a significant literary legacy with her pioneering work in the science fiction genre.

Spent many an good afternoon sitting in the boneyard having the odd bottle or two 'when it wasn't a crime to drink in a public space' struck up many interesting conversation with people from all over the world It certainly did draw them in tbh for a holiday town there never was a lot to do if the sun wasn't shining.
