esorharas 's review for:
Frankenstein
by Mary Shelley
I didn't much care for anyone in this. Frankenstein spent a large portion of the book moaning about how miserable he was, yet was the cause of his own misery by creating 'the monster' and then abandoning his creation to poverty, loneliness and misery.
The monster, of course, turns to violent actions, having been spurned by every person he came across and beaten and generally treated horribly. I didn't care for either character, and didn't sympathise for their situation at all.
I found the book very tedious, for being so short (less than 200 pages). There are long descriptions of the landscape, and of Victor's travels across Europe, and it just dragged. It just wasn't an enjoyable read for me, so I have rated it two stars.
