Point Of View Frankenstein

In the book Frankenstein, Mary Shelly shows the creature's point of view, imagery, and setting to create the creature's complex reaction when he gains knowledge, which can offer the creature not as a serial killer monster but also as someone who has thoughts and feelings, ultimately illustrating the danger of knowledge.
The narrator's point of view is the creature's view; it gives us a more in-depth understanding of the creature's experience with gaining knowledge. From his point of view we see how the creature reacts, and when he learns, "I learned," "I obtained," and "I admired." This demonstrates his reaction to learning, his feelings and willingness to become like a person, demonstrating that his murders were not the work of a pure evil

His complex reaction is like a human's, it shows the human side of this creature. That he is like a new born learning about the world. His complex reaction is one of being scared of knowledge but also thinking it’s an amazing thing to have, which contributes to the work showing he isn't an actual monster but more like a human. The danger of knowledge is shown, when learnd he was different from all the others. But he still has feelings; he wants to fit in and be accepted, but because of his appearance, he has learned that he was an outcast and will never experience the warmth he has seen in humans. They will only try to run and kill him. When he gains more knowledge, it explains why he is isolated and why his creator has abandoned
