Frankenstein, written by Mary Shelley, is a Gothic novel about Robert Walton, a sailor, who is confronted by a mysterious man, Victor Frankenstein. Victor’s fascination for science began at an early age, as he developed a thirst for knowledge on the extension of life. Throughout the novel, Victor describes how he scavenged graveyards, lifeless matter, and fastened those parts together to create a living being. However, one night at his apartment the creation came to life, thus it acquired the name Frankenstein. Frankenstein had a horrific structure to his face, which caused Victor to abandon him. This abandonment encouraged Frankenstein’s societal issues. Some individuals argue that Victor is responsible for the monster's actions, not his creation
