Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein"
Frankenstein is what some, would consider to be the first piece of science fiction. It was written by Mary Shelley. The story takes place in Romania, and it’s about an anatomist, named Victor Frankenstein, and his Monster. The Doctor creates this monster from scavenged body parts. After this, the monster, escapes and causes havoc in town. The message is; that if we create these robots, we may lose control over them as they don’t possess any human emotions. -
