Placing Literature

Placing Literature is a project in which the locations in your favorite novels are mapped onto the exact places from the books. There are 1,500 data points already mapped, and book lovers are invited to add more.

For example, above you see a bit of Geneva, Switzerland, labeled with the events of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein that took place there. Zoom in to find the exact addresses. In some major cities, you'll have to zoom in to separate the many stories that are set in those urban areas. Link -via HuffPo Books
