The Beast and Victors Family

There was a topic that I mentioned at the end of last class which i think is really interesting. Does the monster that Victor created in some way resemble his family. Victors family is made up of so many random parts: his mother is a dead friends daughter and his sister a pretty girl that they picked out of a random family. Victor's monster is kind of the same way. The monster is made up of so many different parts comingfrom disection rooms or slaughter houses or even the graveyard. Im curious to whether vitir did this on purpose expecting it to work out just as well as his mixed part family. Or is this another way of foreshadowing that victors family isnt as perfect as what it seems to be.

In this weeks reading it really caught me off guard when we ran into the monster again yet this time he could speak and had learned key mearsures for surviving and seemed some what educated. After seeing the horror movies you have a very unintelligent monster whos main goal seems to be destruction yet this monster in my opinion is merely looking for companionship. Its odd to think something that looks this terrible might indeed have a kind heart
