WELCOME to our comic about Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein."

Published in 1818, this literary masterpiece stands as an icon of

Romanticism and a profound reflection on scientific ethics. In the
context of the Industrial Revolution and the scientific discussions
of the time, Shelley weaves a fascinating narrative that explores
creation, alienation, and human nature. Join me on a journey
through the history of "Frankenstein," where we will examine its
context, creation, and its enduring impact on literary culture

CHAPTER 6
 "The family's daily life unfolded before
me. A young man, Felix, worked outside,
while a young girl, Agatha, tended to the
cottage. They showered affection on the
old man, Mr. De Lacey."

Their ability to communicate fascinated me.

I yearned to talk, to be like them. Names:
Mr. De Lacey, Felix, Agatha—slowly, I
grasped their language.
 I saw my reflection—monstrous. No
wonder they fear me. I understood
the hostility.

I decided that I had acted too quickly.
