Victor constantly cursed at me like I didn’t mean anything to him. He created me how could he view me this way it’s not my fault. I understand that my life is so miserable because of how I was created and how people view me. I just wish someone could look at me for me for once. I will forever love him no matter all the stuff he put me through. “Life, although it only may be the accumulation of anguish, is dear to me and I will defend it.” Here I’m trying to note to Frankenstein has the responsibility for me. I live in a bad existence where nature is the only thing that doesn’t judge me. Victor called me a murderer and curses at me and wish that he would have never ever brought me to life.
I constantly thank him for even making me I feel like it’s a blessing for me to be here. “I was partly urged by curiosity, and compassion confirmed my resolution. For the first time, also, I felt what the duties of a creator towards his creature were, and that I thought to render him happy before I complained of his weakness. These motives urged me to comply with his demands.” Victor finally let me tell my side of the story. I’m sorry that I’m not who you think I am. Everyone looks at me as a monster because of

I have no way to be the way I am. I’m literally shunned and abandoned by my creator. He was literally my only friend and he talk about me behind my back like I didn’t mean anything to him. You would think that I was one of the people off the street the way he talked and treated me. Maybe if people was a little nicer to me and gave me a chance then I wouldn’t be this way. I don’t mean to step on your toes by telling you this but I just thought it would be nice to let you know. You are my creator Victor and I love you. You’re the only one who knows why you made me this

    "I had before been moved by the sophisms of the being I had created; I had been struck senseless by his fiendish threats; but now, for the first time, the wickedness of my promise burst upon me; I shuddered to think that future ages might curse me as their pest, whose selfishness had not hesitated to buy its own peace at the price, perhaps, of the existence of the whole human race (Shelley, 20.1). " Victor may seem as though he is contemplating if he was actually wrong to create this monster, but it is the way he says that "people will be mad at him" that makes him still conceded. Towards the end he may be questioning all of his mistakes and actions but he isn't quite taking responsibility for what he has…

    In the novel Frankenstein, Marry Shelly definitely shows the influence of the Romantic Period. One of the most important features of the novel is the way in which the creature convinces Frankenstein to comply with his request in Chapter 17. Throughout the better part of their exchange, the creature's tone is reasonable in the extreme: in fact, his desire for a companion seems almost noble. In this way, he will divest himself of his longing for violence and revenge, and lead a blameless life. By aligning his maliciousness with his misery, he is implicitly blaming Frankenstein for what he has become: such an accusation, however, is effective in evoking the sympathy of both Victor and the reader.…

    As Victor states on page 40, “I need not describe the feelings of those whose dearest ties are rent by that most irreparable evil, the void that presents itself to the soul, and the despair that is exhibited on the countenance.” Victor’s focus after the event is on the rending of his dearest ties- the upset of his life and the lack of ability to change it. After this traumatic event, Victor falls down a path of emotional detachment and despair- and thus the cruelties of life in turn inspire him to perform his own acts of cruelty. Another act of cruelty that influenced Victor’s ideas and actions was during his studies at the University. This is most concisely expressed by this quote by Mr. Krempe on page 43, “ ‘Every minute,’ continued M. Krempe with warmth, ‘every instant that you have wasted on those books is utterly and entirely lost.…
