Summary "Frankenstein, ou le Prométhée moderne Volume 2" by Shelley is a novel written in the early 19th century. It continues the story of Victor Frankenstein and the consequences of creating a being that ultimately leads to tragedy and destruction. The narrative explores themes of ambition, responsibility, and the nature of humanity through the complex relationship between the creator and his creation. At the start of this volume, we find Victor Frankenstein grappling with profound guilt and despair after a series of tragic events that he feels responsible for, including the death of his brother William and the wrongful execution of Justine Moritz. As he retreats into solitude at his family's home, he struggles with inner turmoil and is haunted by visions of the monster he created. Meanwhile, the narrative shifts to introduce the creature's own experiences, which reflect its longing for companionship and acceptance in a world that has rejected it. As Victor embarks on a journey that leads him to confront his creation, the tensions between creator and creature intensify, setting the stage for further conflict and exploration of moral themes.
