Frankenstein's Family History

I read Frankenstein for the first time a couple of years ago. The Monsters* was much more articulate than he's portrayed in other media. He also has no problem murdering pretty much anyone who crosses his path.

*Frankenstein is the name of the man who created the Monster.

    I love that novel! When we studied it in school, the teacher referred to the creature as the Newborn rather than the Monster, and that still makes the most sense to me

      This is why we should all be grateful that babies don't have superhuman strength--they'd be as murderous as Frankenstein's creation.
