Events

This is a reading of the entire novel Frankstein by various volunteers throughout the university and community across three nights. Refreshments and amusements will be provided. Princeton’s event is part of a world-wide “Frankenread” which is being recorded, in samples, by the NEH.

“The Frankenread” — a viva voce reading, by dozens of participants, of the entire 1818 Frankenstein. One volume each night. Free and open to everyone. A screening of Thomas Edison’s silent film, Frankenstein will be shown.

If you are interested in being a reader please contact Professor Susan Wolfson at wolfson@princeton.edu
