What I hear in these sections of Frankenstein is the desire for companionship. “I am alone, and miserable; man will not associate with me; but one as deformed and horrible as myself would not deny herself to me. My companion must be of the same species, and have the same defects. This being you must create.” (pg 128) When I hear this I think about times that I have related to what the creature must be feeling. Frankenstein is obviously feeling lonely and despite his being labeled as a monster or creature, he still has the capacity to feel emotions that humans can, making him not as different as we might think.
I did wonder why Victor destroyed the other creature. We discussed in class that there was most likely a moral issue but then also shed light into feminism ideas. Also, why did is have to be a woman? Why not a male for friendship?
