Dieciocho años tenía Mary Shelley cuando escribió las primeras líneas de Frankestein, una obra cuya popularidad, debida en parte al cine y al teatro, ha hecho disminuir notablemente el número de lectores, que no se deciden a leerla por considerarla harto conocida. Y sin embargo Frankestein es mucho más que la historia de un doctor un poco raro que un día creó un monstruo. Debajo de la aparente anécdota de terror, aparte los aspectos latentes de la crisis política, social y religiosa de la época, hay otra historia no menos angustiosa: la del ser monstruoso que intenta superar su deformidad por medio del lenguaje y la razón.

Cuando naufragó Robinson en aquella isla desierta, no podía imaginarse que pasaría allí veintiocho años, sembraría arroz y cebada, haría queso y encontraría a un buen salvaje a quien evangelizar. Pero Robinson no es solo un hombre hábil, capaz de sobrevivir, y aún de prosperar, a fuerza de tenacidad e ingenio. Es, sobre todo, el prototipo del colonizador inglés, que no se conforma con "estar" en la isla, sino que la explora y la somete. Defoe, por su ausencia de pretensiones literarias, por su estilo "esencial" y tan "práctico" como el hombre que narra su vida, escribió una obra maestra imprescindible.
