frakenstein 6

"Be calm! I intreat you to hear me, before you give vent to your hatred on my devoted head" (68).


In Chapter 9, the narrator is switched from Frankstein to the monster. He tells his story from the point of his creation to the current time. This enables the reader to fully comprehend the complex emotions in the monster; also, we learn of the happenings that occured when Frankenstein was not present. The switching of narrators really gives the reader a chance to understand every side of the story and gives more than one character a chance to develop in a story that is told in first person. Through his narrative, the reader discovers that the monster is very capable of feeling emotions-this suprised me. He attempts to comprehend the meaning of love and relationships.
