I have read a story of ‘Frankenstein’ today. I learned that people can’t live without love in that story. The monster was created with lack of attractiveness from others. Even his creator, Victor Frankenstein hated the monster. At first, the monster tries to make friends. The monster brings some wood to the cottage, however people refuse his attempt to be friend. The monster also demands Dr. Frankenstein to make another creature that can be friend with it. However, Victor fears to create another one. As a result, the monster became vengeful and kills Victor’s best friend. The author tries to say that the creature, who cannot be loved by anyone, can’t be a man. After his best friend dies, Victor tries to revenge. However, Dr. Frankenstein disserved his tragedy, because he made a creature, which has to live alone without love forever. Rejected as a man, the monster could only be a creature full of resentment. The life without love or friends will be a tragedy. Victor Frankenstein gave that life to the monster. Monster suffered because of his appearance and existence, and Victor should have thought of it. His science was not able to give monster the ability to attract others. This lack of science ruined the monster’s life.
