"Frankenstein" by Mary Shelley follows Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist obsessed with conquering death. He creates a sentient being by assembling body parts and reviving them through unorthodox experiments. However, horrified by his creation's grotesque appearance, Victor abandons the creature, who subsequently faces rejection and isolation from humanity. Driven by despair and a desire for revenge, the creature confronts Victor, leading to a tragic pursuit marked by themes of creation, responsibility, and the consequences of humanity's unchecked ambition. The story explores deep philosophical questions about existence, morality, and the nature of love and loneliness. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
