Mary Shelley's Frankenstein - Notes

• Creature is a child but no parents - so doesn't know right from wrong.
• Victor is more evil than the creature.
• Victor never thought what would happen once the creature had been created - message 'don't mess with nature'.
• Shelley's view on life and death - death is nature just like life
• Creature is society overall - made up of different people - bad, good, evil and gifted. - society has equal measures of everything but the creature has to work this together
• The creature is Victors other side
• Suggested that Victor is almost turning into the creature same characteristics
• Nature will always balance its self out
