Esta novela relata la historia de una mujer que, desde su lecho de muerte, confiesa su tragedia: el amor incestuoso de su padre (…). Escrita en forma de una larga carta dirigida a su único amigo, Woodville, la protagonista revela el secreto de su reclusión en un páramo encerrado por montañas y alejado de todo rastro de vida humana.Como curtida artesana de palabras, Mary Shelley selecciona las herramientas que aprendió a emplear a lo largo de sus lecturas para crear la intriga, exaltar las pasiones y detonar el drama. Eso es Mathilda, la propuesta de algo impensado para la época. La mujer que, sin esperanzas, se recluye sola en un páramo; la heredera de una inmensa fortuna que burla el sistema de vigilancia impuesto a las jóvenes en edad de casarse, simulando un suicidio para zarpar en el primer barco que la lleve a tierras lejanas.
