Enough with the summary, but the book is incredible. It's very engaging and neat to see the multi-faced-emotions between the creator and the created and see how it could resemble our own relationship with God. I understand it's quite different, but to imagine such circumstances is interesting nevertheless.

Half Way Into Frankenstein
As i mentioned in my previous post, Frankenstein deals with creation and the relationship between the Creator and the Created. Frankenstein, the creator of the monster, hates the monster that he created and wants to erase all memories of it. The monster is at first an innocent being who doesn't know his hideous physical appearance, but later comes to realize through the horrified reactions of human encounters. The monster compares himself to Satan, a being created by God but cursed to live a life of misery and seclusion. He asks why he isn't Adam and solicits Frankenstein, his creator, to create a female monster so he may live with a companion away from humankind. Frankenstein refuses and the monster becomes the creature that resembles his evil appearance.
