"Frankenstein" tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist who becomes obsessed with reanimating dead tissue. Through his experiments, he creates a living creature that is monstrous in appearance but deeply emotional and sensitive. Rejected by society and horrified by his own creation, Victor's creature embarks on a quest for acceptance and companionship. As their paths intertwine, themes of ambition, isolation, and the consequences of playing God unfold, leading to tragic consequences for both creator and creation. The novel explores profound questions about humanity, identity, and the limits of scientific exploration. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
