Happiness is easy
Because of the various points of view, the antagonist switches from Victor to the monster and back again. Both serve as the antagonist for the other. Victor seeks revenge on the monster for killing his family, while the monster seeks revenge on Victor for leaving him lonely. At any time, one of these characters could comply with the other, and their problems could be solved. I don’t understand why they can’t be friends with each other. By doing this, they could solve all their problems, since their problems are each other. The monster would have a friend and would stop killing, and Victor would not constantly be afraid. Happiness is not that difficult!

I never thought of them just liking each other haha. I guess Victor is too focused on what havoc he has done, and the deaths the monster has caused, to ever consider befriending him. But I bet the monster would comply to this idea.
ReplyDeleteI never thought of that either! It's so true though. I mean if Victor would stop being afraid of his OWN creation, then they could make it work. They are just out to get each other because they don't get what they want. The monster would definitely want to be friends because he just doesn't want to be lonely. He wants to feel loved!!
