“For while I destroyed his hopes, I did not satisfy my own desires. They were for ever ardent and craving; still I desired love and fellowship, and I was still spurned. Was there no injustice in this? Am I to be thought the only criminal, when all human kind sinned against me?”
Comment: The creature seemed to desire what anyone desires, love, friendship, and compassion. When he first ran away from Victor he had to learn everything from the beginning alone but whenever he saw anyone they instantly rejected him because of his appearance. It would have been understandable if the creature killed anyone that treated him poorly, but he didn’t. In the end, the creature, even having killed all of the people closest to Victor, seemed to me to be the victim. Victor created the creature and then abandoned him, of course, the creature would develop some sort of anger towards that.
Question: If the creature was so upset about how the people reacted to him anytime they came in contact, why did he not kill everyone that treated him poorly?
