__**Frankenstein's Monster**__ Amirah Mayes

Frankenstein's Monster was created by a scientist/alchemist named Victor Frankenstein. After laying his eyes upon his creation, Victor summarily flees in fear and rejects his experiment. Left abandoned and frightened and completely unaware of his identity, the monster wanders through the forest, searching for someone who will care for him. The monster learns to be literate and mannerly from hiding in a woodshed apart of a cottage occupied by a famliy named the Delacys. He develops speech from listening to them teach their Arabian daughter-in-law French. One day, Frankentsein's monster is driven out of the cottage after he was discovered by the family conversing with their blind grandfather who could not see his frightening appearence. After being driven out, the monster rescues a girl from the river and get shot in the arm by someone who claims her. As a result with his alienation by humans, the monster disavows all humankind and wishes to get revenge on his creator. In his relentless search for Frankenstein, the monster meets a small boy who is scared by his appearence and calls his father who turns out to be Frankenstein and kills the boy. The monster pleads with Frankenstein to make one of his kind so that he will no longer be alone in the world. Frankenstein agrees but is soon reluctant in possibly creating a race of monsters and does not finish his second experiment. Enraged the monster vows to destroy everything Frankenstein holds dear. Fulfilling his commitment, the creature kills Frankenstein's bride and dearest friend causing Frankenstein to dedicate his life to eradicating his horrible experiment gone wrong. Frankenstein later dies from pneumonia after falling through ice. In discovering his dead creator on a ship in the Artic, the monster is grieved upon realizing his revenge is cut short and realizes he lost his only family. Then and there, he promises to go to the "northernmost extremity of the globe" and burn his body to ashes so that nothing like him will be created again and then jumps off the boat. Frankenstein's monster is sensitive, emotional, intelligent, mannerly and articulate but is driven to commit murderous acts through revenge because of the constant eschewing from humans including his own creator Victor Frankenstein.
