Gut. Regt tatsächlich zum nachdenken an und was leben ist und wie wertvoll. Arme kreatur und arme alle
"But I am a blasted tree; the bolt has entered my soul; and I felt then that I should survive to exhibit, what I shall soon cease to be - a miserable spectacle of wrecked humanity, pitiable to others, and intolerable to myself"
Truly incredible.

Just didn’t like this one . . . I listened to it as a part of an alumni book club and was hoping that the discussion would help me like it more.
Nope.
The facilitator confirmed that it was a loosely written mish mash of story themes.

“a sense of security, a feeling that a truce was established between the present hour and the irresistible, disastrous future imparted to me a kind of calm forgetfulness, of which the human mind is by its structure peculiarly susceptible”

I really enjoyed this book, going into it with zero expectations. Fascinating read with interesting topics touched upon. I felt for Frankenstein but I also felt for the monster, awakened in an unknown world, bound to never feel like he belongs.

Incredible! Miles away from what I expected this book to be about (i.e. a monster mash [i.e. a graveyard smash]). It's a book about a person who alienates himself from society, literally flees to the Arctic Circle and dies RATHER than admit to his friends and family the scope of his failures....I feel that.
