I must say that Ms. Stariha has extremely adorable children. Slide 23 and 30 are the cutest pictures ever. Willa is getting so big and Harper is looking more and more like her Daddy :) Super cute.
But back to Brit Lit, I didn't quite understand the intense elaboration of the story of Justine in Elizabeth's letter to Victor.. ? Maybe it will play a major role later on in the book but when I read it, I was confused. I hope that Victor doesn't marry Elizabeth. Even though his mother said on her death bed that her "firmest hopes of future happiness were placed on the prospect of their union", I think that it would be unfair to Elizabeth if they were to get married because he is not the same person that he was before he created the monster. Since creating "Frankenstein's Monster" he has become a deranged, fearful man who is not of sound mental health. He seemed almost schizophrantic towards the end...

ReplyDeleteDid you just call the girls daddy super cute??? JUST KIDDING!!! I know what you mant!
ReplyDeleteBut back to Brit Lit (haha ;D ) I think that if Victor does end up marrying Elizabeth, that maybe he will start to return to his normal self. If you think about it... when he was on the boat, where he is now narrating the story, he was 'normal' and subtle. Not at all the man we read about while he was at college

ReplyDeleteI think Victor will have his heart broken when Elizabeth choose Henry over him, perhaps pushing him back to his monster and mentally unstable state.
