"Frankenstein, ou le Prométhée moderne Volume 3 (of 3)" by Shelley is a Gothic novel written in the early 19th century. The book explores themes of isolation, creation, and the consequences of ambition through the tragic story of Victor Frankenstein, a scientist who creates a sentient being. Its exploration of moral dilemmas surrounding creation and responsibility resonates deeply with readers. At the start of this volume, Victor Frankenstein grapples with immense guilt and horror over the implications of his past actions, particularly the promise he made to create a companion for the creature he brought to life. As he returns to Geneva, he is tormented by the weight of his responsibilities and the fear of retribution from the monster. The opening highlights Victor's internal struggle as he discusses his impending marriage with his father while concealing his dreadful secret. The tension mounts as Victor prepares for a journey to England, seeking knowledge while feeling increasingly haunted by the presence of his creation, which threatens those he loves. This complex emotional landscape sets the stage for a tale steeped in dread and moral questioning, urging readers to ponder the ramifications of scientific ambition gone awry.
