Frankenstein #2
In Frankenstein, Mary Shelly builds up wonderful moments and scenarios than involve an immense amount of intensity. At the start of one later letter, Walton wrote, "So strange an accident has happened to us that I cannot forbear recording it,"(8). This truly begins the introduction of the true main character who later on tells the story to change Walton's perception entirely. The accident is told with certain key words that later on reflect on circumstances told in the story. As a group, those on board the ship saw what appeared to be a man. Soon after, they encountered a man that ends up being a dear friend to our already introduced Walton. Interestingly enough, Walton had really been searching for a friend an this character seemed to fill the spot perfectly. Right ff the bat a sense of parallelism was apparent between the two. More than anything, they seemed to be the best of friends. While speaking of his own ambitions, Walton comes to find that this man known as Frankenstein is just as Walton is! He is crazy to try to change the poses of what is capable in the world but he tried anyways too. This is when the real story begins.
