Mary Shelley's Frankenstein was not appreciated during her period. It took time for people to understand and value such a masterpiece. Indeed the novel highlights the value of humanity as well as disability. However, the novel portrays how the society judged and treated the creature. From the very beginning the creature is seen from a negative perspective because of its appearance. Though the creature does not have any harmful thoughts in the beginning the way society looks at him and treats him, drifts him away from the companionship he thrives for, instead is fed with fear and hatred. Till the very end, the creature is not given a chance to prove that he could be a better being and judges him to the point where the being turns out to the monster the society predicted it to be.
