Frankenstein

Mary Shelley

In the story, Victor Frankenstein narrates his life from his curious childhood in Geneva, deeply fascinated by the mysteries of science, to becoming an ambitious young man at the University of Ingolstadt, where he ambitiously creates a living being from inert matter. However, the grotesque appearance of his creation horrifies Victor, forcing him to abandon it. Shunned by society, the lonely, intelligent creature becomes bitter and seeks revenge against his creator for his miserable existence, leading to tragic repercussions for Victor and those he loves. The narrative delves into themes of ambition, the consequences of usurping nature, and the impacts of isolation and rejection on the creature, who, despite his initial innocence, is driven to desperate acts.
