Born into a wealthy family, she was orphaned at the age of 17 and began writing to support herself. Her first major work, THE MUMMY! A TALE OF THE TWENTY-SECOND CENTURY was published anonymously in 1827 when she was twenty years old. Many believe that she was inspired by Mary Shelley’s FRANKENSTEIN, which had published less than a decade prior. THE MUMMY! is considered a pioneering work of science fiction, and the first English language story to feature a reanimated mummy.visualizza meno
