Falkner è l'ultimo romanzo di Mary Shelley, pubblicato nel 1837. Come il suo precedente romanzo, Lodore (1835), Falkner segue l'educazione di una giovane donna alle prese con un padre tirannico. Il protagonista con i suoi conflitti interiori raccoglie in sé tutte le caratteristiche dell'eroe byroniano, ma la protagonista femminile assume una posizione centrale nella storia. Infatti, si tratta dell'unico dei romanzi di Mary Shelley in cui l'eroina trionfa.
