The novel begins with explorer Robert Walton looking for a new passage from Russia to the Pacific Ocean via the Arctic Ocean. After weeks as sea, the crew of Walton's ship finds an emaciated man, Victor Frankenstein, floating on an ice flow near death. In Walton's series of letters to his sister in England, he retells Victor's tragic story.

Growing up in Geneva, Switzerland, Victor is a precocious child, quick to learn all new subjects. He is raised with Elizabeth, an orphan adopted by his family. Victor delights in the sciences and vows to someday study science. Victor prepares to leave for his studies at the University of Ingolstadt, when his mother and Elizabeth become ill with scarlet fever. Caroline dies from the disease, and Elizabeth is nursed back to health.

At the university, Victor meets his professors M. Krempe and M. Waldman. For two years, Victor becomes very involved with his studies, even impressing his teachers and fellow students. He devises a plan to re-create and reanimate a dead body. He uses a combination of chemistry, alchemy, and electricity to make his ambition a reality.

After bringing the creature to life, Victor feels guilty that he has brought a new life into the world with no provisions for taking care of the "monster." He runs away in fear and disgust from his creation and his conscience. The monster wanders the countryside while Victor seeks solace in a tavern near the university. Henry Clerval appears to save Victor and restore him to health.

Alphonse writes to Victor telling him to come home immediately since an unknown assailant murdered his youngest brother, William, by strangulation. Justine Moritz, their housekeeper, is falsely accused of the murder of William, and she goes to the gallows willingly. Victor knows who the killer is but cannot tell his family or the police. He journeys out of Geneva to refresh his tortured soul and visits Mount Montanvert when he sees the monster coming to confront his maker with a proposition"make me a mate of my own." Victor refuses, and the monster asks that his part of the story be heard. The pair retreats to a small hut on the mountain where the monster tells his story.

The monster has taught himself to read and understand language so that he can follow the lives of his "adopted" family, the De Laceys. While the monster wanders the woods, he comes upon a jacket with a notebook and letters that were lost by Victor. From the notes, the monster learns of his creation. He has endured rejection by mankind, but he has not retaliated upon mankind in general for his misfortune. Instead, he has decided to take revenge on his creator's family to avenge the injury and sorrow he endures from others.

I am writing a personal narrative essay on 'demonstrating bravery'. I don't understand how I write this nor how I can start it.
Zolol [24]

Demonstrating bravery huh? It doesn't seem too hard to explain. Say, for example your talking about a fictional story, right? Depending on what that said character does, depends on his/her bravery for he/she did. If you can implement something similar to that in whatever it was you had in mind, it might help.

I really hope this helps.

A letter about the good result of truthfulness​
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Dear Alice,

Hope you are in good health. I am writing this letter, not to ask anything from you but to tell you something really important. You must be thinking what is so important thing that I really wanted to share from you. We are friends since last 10 years and there is nothing that has been successful in creating misunderstanding between us. We have always stood for each other in every problem that has come our way. You have always told me truth about every issue and we have dealt with it our way. It is really great courage to always speak truth even in difficult situations. But since you always speak truth, I can never doubt you and believe in whatever you say. This has made our relation really strong. I wish our relation continues forever and our love for each other stays same till our last breathe.

Regards,

Jamie.
