Alternate Ending To Frankenstein

Great Essays
I was close to completing my second atrocity. As I worked, I thought to myself, “Why? What possessed me to bring such a hideous demon into this world, and then turn my back on it long enough for it to become corrupt by us humans and our sinister predisposition?” It was starting to get quite cold here in Geneva.

    The confusion behind the purpose of life and death that causes grief is often looked at as a simple problem that can be neglected; but avoiding that problem often leads into larger conflicts. In the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, the protagonist lacks the ability to adjust with the nature of life which leads into his desire in creating a living creature; where as in The Sweet Hereafter by Russel Banks, the inability to cope with death changed the ideology of a bus accident victims ' families.

    Many of the professional literary critiques that emerged following the publishing of Frankenstein were less than positive in their evaluations of its quality and value. Some of these critics devalued it based on its failure to present a positive message to readers while others criticized inconsistencies within the story. One article that criticized both aspects of this novel was The Literary Panorama and National Register’s “Review of Frankenstein; or the Modern Prometheus.” This paper was well known in this era and considered a credible source of information regarding literature. Despite offering superficial compliments, the author attempts to prove that this work of fiction is a disappointment considering the school from which it proceeds.…
