The Distraught Mind of Victor Frankenstein.

In the book Frankenstein, Victor "creates" a monster that kills all that Frankenstein loves and causes general chaos in Victor's life. But is the monster real? I think not. The monster is simply a fragment of the doctor's mind, after months and months of working to find the key to life itself, Frankenstein simply fails in his quest. After putting so much effort into his work his mind simply does not allow him to think that he has failed, Victor Frankenstein has never failed, always top of the class and seen as a soon-to-be great mind by his professors. How could he fail? Not once in the book is any detail given to how the monster was created or what science he used. How the complexity of life could be solved just by applying electricity. I believe that when he thought he saw the monster’s eyes open his mind had just caved into to months of stress, as you can see since he immediately goes to bed and sleeps it off. Deeper and deeper he gets as his subconscious makes back stories to the tale until he creates something so sinister that his mind loses control and the monster takes over, killing first his own younger brother. Even before any evidence is given it was the monster Frankenstein already knows it was him, just an intuition? I think not. Once again the doctor’s mind creates an entire history of the monster, making it learn to be extremely eloquent in such a short span just by reading a few books? Impossible. Then another murder takes place where Frankenstein on his boat is the closest one, once again the victor loses control to the monster and kills again. During his stay at the prison, he mutters about being the one who killed everyone. His subconscious was speaking through him. Victor’s mind is weak and fragile and he quests after the monster, always conveniently “seeing” brief flashes of the monster in thunderstorms, always knowing exactly where the monster is. Once he takes after the monster on his sledge he probably started chasing some poor Eskimo man who keeps wondering why some strange dude is intent on catching him. In essence, Frankenstein is crazy. The reason the monster doesn’t have a name? He doesn’t exist and if he did his name would be… FRANKENSTIEN!
