Dr. Frankenstein, the so-called decent, no-fault man, is actually authoritarian, obstinate, and extreme in his actions throughout the novel. From the very first encounter with Victor Frankenstein, we get a hint of his character when he asks Robert Walton, "Do you share my madness?" (p.24). This is one of the first things he asks once he recovers from his illness. From the beginning we know that something is wrong with Victor.

Dr. Frankenstein's irresponsibility is illustrated many times in the feelings he displays toward his creation. Wh

What's the creature to do? With not a single companion in the whole world, he sets out to try and find one. The creature's second encounter with man is no better than his first, "He turned on hearing a noise; and perceiving me, shrieked loudly, and quitting the hut, ran across the fields with a speed of which his debilitated form hardly appeared capable" (p.135).

(p.126).

The creature even shows signs of joy when he listened to music, "...and to produce sounds sweeter than the voice of the thrush or the nightingale. It was a lovely sight, even to me, poor wretch!" (p.139). When the creature sees the interaction of a true family his yearning to be accepted increases, "He raised her, and smiled with such kindness and affection that I felt sensations of a peculiar and overwhelming nature: they were a mixture of pain and pleasure, such as I had never before experienced...and withdrew from the window, unable to bear these emotions" (p.139).
