Starting Frankenstein


I started the first 30 pages of Frankenstein yesterday. It started off with so many letters and introductions to the book. Its really a lot shorter than I thought it would be. The first 30 pages started off as a boy who grows to love amazing writers who thrill him to discover new things. He then goes away to college and meets a chemistry professor who goes to another country and learns more and more. His knowledge expands and he becomes intensely involved in his work. He starts to build a monster and creates a giant creature. It then terrifies him and he starts to go crazy. I think in the next section he'll probably go home to Switzerland, but we'll see. Okay time for class. Toodles.
