"Frankenstein" by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist obsessed with the idea of creating life. He successfully animates a creature made from deceased body parts, but upon seeing his creation, he is horrified and abandons it. The creature, seeking companionship and acceptance, becomes increasingly isolated and bitter due to society's rejection. Driven by vengeance, it pursues Victor, leading to tragic consequences for both creator and creation. The novel explores themes of ambition, responsibility, and the consequences of defying natural boundaries, ultimately questioning what it means to be human.
