The monster only killed because he thought it was unfair that he was created with no guidance and affection and he wanted his creator to suffer the way the monster did all those days on his own with no one to comfort him. This signifies how the monster knew that his actions were not right but he felt the need to accomplish it because it was justice. The monster was misinterpreted throughout the whole novel as a crazy savage, but in reality he was angry because he was left alone while his creator was enjoying himself.

As we can see from the picture above, this is an altogether different scene from what we read in the book, as we know that the monster is a violent creature. Still, it has a very high level of intellectual and cognitive ability. The monster is intelligent, which makes it even more evident how much knowledge he has about himself, the world around him, and how he appears to others. In this way, the work acquires a depth that the adaptations of the job do not possess when we see it as a whole.
