Frankenstein

I started reading the novel Frankenstein today, and at first I didn't think I was going to like the story but after I got into chapter one it got a bit more interesting. But lets start from the beginning shall we, the main character's name is Robert Walton and he has decided to go on this long voyage to the North Pole, and before he starts out he rights a couple of letters to his sister Margret stating that he wants to go on this adventure to experience and gain much more knowledge. He continues to tell her that he will get a ship and hire a crew when he reaches Archangel, but then he gets to thinking that he doesn't have a friend to share his joy with, so he is kind of in search of a friend. Now were getting into chapter one, Walton is on his way to the North Pole when off in the distance him and his crew see a giant man with a dogsled he then starts to pursue him when he finds a man ( Victor Frankenstein ) lying on the ice of the ocean. So they picked him up and brought him in from the cold, realizing he was very sick and weak from being out there so long. Frankenstein starts talking of his past, telling many stories. Walton sees that he is suffering from much grief, but is amazed with how frankenstein loves the beauty of the world around him. Walton thinks that they could be good friends and he could share his joys with him. Frankenstein continues to tell how his dad saved his mom from poverty after her dad had died, then how they had 3 children william, Elizabeth which she was adopted, and himself victor. He goes on to say that him and elizabeth were one year apart and they were pretty much raised together. Victor then went to school to study the laws of nature, he also tried to write a book but his dad Alphorse said it was trash. then later on victor Frankenstein was asked by his parents to attend the University of Ingolstadt, but before he got the chance to leave his sister elizabeth fell sick with scarlet fever and her mother was so worried she needed to be beside her and then she also fell sick, elizabeth then got better but her mother did not, while on her death bed she asked victor and elizabeth to join as a union ( get married) nothing really became of that or at least not yet. Victor now gets to leave for college, he then studies chemistry. working in the labs gathering much needed material to make his experiment. I am now to the part where Victor Frankenstein makes the crazy creature and he realizes it was a big mistake. that was my summary of the first 4 chapters of the novel so far, can't wait to read the rest.
