Frankenstein of Mary Shelley could be a story about love and family care
without all deaths, anger and hatefulnessful. Victor Frankenstein and his
creature could be a happy family just as father and son. But it didn´t happen the
story is about the fight and corruption of both characters.

Victor Frankenstein lived with a good family, whose always had given all he
needs, he could study in a good school and made friends. He studied very hard
at school and wanted to know the secrets of life and he wanted to know how to
do living things. His ambition to make living things grew up when he was at
university and met his professor who was also a great scientist. He got his own
lab where he could finally have his “work” done. However he didn´t not sure
about the end´s result of his creation, he continued with it. After all, its worked
and the creature was alive, but Victor was terrify with the huge figure and ran
away, he didn´t even thought about his image of creator about this
responsability of what he had done. But this will bring a horrible destiny of
darkness and madness to him.

The creature was abandoned since he was alive because of his appearence, he
had to take care of itself, feed itself, and search for a place to live. In its way it
only found hate, cruelty and contempt from the people. One day it thought
finally find love in its live it figured out that it was abandoned again. It tried to be
a man, beyond this, a good man, but people always treated it with insults and
despising. So he find on revenge of his creator a way to it could feel better, and
it made this by killing people that Victor Frankenstein loved.

Therefore, it is possible to notice that the creature of Frankenstein was not born
bad, the lack of love and affection in his life made him enter a dark path of
sadness and death. he could be good and not have caused the death of anyone
if he had had a family, Victor Frankenstein could be this family and could help
him to be, not a creature, but a good person. However, Frankenstein didn't think
about the consequences of his actions, it was easier to escape from the reality
he himself had created than to face it.
