Frankenstein #5
Frankenstein, a work by Mary Shelley, is more than just a story. It's a story within a story. Some sort of 1700 Inception theory that is hard to understand at points. How similar are the stories between this man, Frankenstein, and Walton going to get? I wih to understand the meaning behind the beginning when Frankenstein said that Walton wouldn't want to know hat the spark to life was. Why does Frankenstein have to endure the hardships of feelin the guilt and blame for the deaths at hand? It seems very u fair that he must partake in this affair. An then be approached by the creature monster himself? That just seems to be an even hard concept in itself. Te death of Justine and his younger brother William weigh heavily on his soul, and the mister that Frankenstein thinks killed them in a sense decides to approach and confront Frankenstein on so many levels. The dialogue of the creature is that of intelligence. He had the capacity to learn and comprehend which just adds to the mystery of why he would kill the youngest son. "My rage was withou bounds,"(68), only begins to describe the feelings that Frankenstein has for his creature. He feels such intangible sorrow at the interaction with the beast that he even charges it in an attempt to revenge. This then creates another story within the already story within a story that is going on by source of the creature! He tells of his beginnings and how he came to be as is nowadays.
