Review of Frankenstein

The story begins with Captain Robert Walton's letters to his sister, detailing his arctic expedition. There, he encounters Victor Frankenstein, a scientist on the brink of death. Frankenstein shares his tragic tale with Walton, forming the heart of the narrative. Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant and ambitious scientist, becomes obsessed with the idea of creating life. He spends years secretly working in his laboratory, piecing together a creature from body parts he has collected from graveyards and charnel houses. When he finally brings his creation to life, he is horrified by its appearance and immediately abandons it. The creature, although initially innocent and curious, is quickly rejected by society due to its monstrous appearance. It is forced to live in isolation, learning to fend for itself and observing human behavior from afar. As it becomes more aware of its own existence and the rejection it faces, the creature's anger and resentment grow, leading it to seek revenge against its creator. The creature demands that Frankenstein create a female companion for it, promising to leave humanity alone if he does so. Frankenstein initially agrees, but as he nears the completion of the female creature, he has second thoughts and destroys his work. Enraged, the creature vows to make Frankenstein suffer, and it proceeds to kill everyone Frankenstein loves, including his younger brother, his best friend, and his bride on their wedding night. Frankenstein, consumed by guilt and a desire for revenge, pursues the creature across the globe, determined to destroy it. The chase leads them both to the Arctic, where Frankenstein finally collapses from exhaustion and exposure. Walton finds Frankenstein and listens to his story before he dies. The creature, who has followed Frankenstein to the ship, appears briefly to lament the destruction it has caused and then disappears into the ice, presumably to end its own life.
