Talk:19th Century Literature/Frankenstein

I liked the comparisons you made between the monster and upper class society, I also feel that the story was a look at humanism and the eternal desire to have companionship. Victor created the monster and then turned his back on him leaving him to fend for himself and to be excluded from the world around him. He never knew a kind or gental touch and went to great lengths to try to acquire it. He even tracked Victor down and demanded a femal counter part to share in his diformaty and solitude. The monster struggled with loneliness and solitude, he ultimitaly became evil to gain attention from his master. Everything leads back to human emotion and desire for companionship.
