The Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, the saturnine world-known masterpiece of literature, flaunts the inevitable failure of man wanting to be a master of nature.
The main character of the novel, Victor Frankenstein, was shocked by the early death of his mother so he dedicated himself to learning medicine, chemistry, paleontology and other fields of science to know more about the life and death.
He worked hard, and his work led him to the confidence that the man had power as God to create life. From the organs elicited from dead human bodies he gathered a new human creature. In the paroxysm of delirium and fever he finished his work, he mixed chemicals and whispered shibboleths, and when the monster opened his eyes the man flew and let the being run away.
After several months of illness Frankenstein returned home and tried to forget about his creature. His panache and self-confidence appeared mendacious; he was too weak to be responsible for the life of other being. The monster hided himself in the countryside and tried to live near the endemic people but faced only hatred and violence. He started to obviate the people; after long time of ignorance and solitude his heart became full of anger and pain. He began his revenge to his creator, he made him bloody recoil for his suffering. He murdered his relatives; and finally when Frankenstein refused to create another one being the wretch killed the young Frankenstein’s bride.
In the deepest desperate Victor Frankenstein went to the end of the world to kill his creature.
The outstanding bombast and idea of the novel deigned the greatest estimation all over the world.
