Rate this review of Frankenstein from czech goodreads. I found it interesting. It sounds both like it's written by liberal feminist and tranny hater, lol.
>A novel about men, written by a woman. It sounds like a horror story, but it isn’t.
>Frankenstein is (for me) a book about two relationships: the relationship between mother and child, and the relationship between human and God. The novelty of the book lies in who these relationships are between. In the novel, these relationships are depicted through the central pair of characters—Victor Frankenstein and his nameless creation—the monster (the creature, the fiend, the horror), which Frankenstein assembles and brings to life. And here’s the interesting part: the role of mother and God is taken on by a man, while the role of child and human is filled by his monster, a being cobbled together from dead bodies and reanimated through alchemy and science.
>Under the influence of his ego, Victor Frankenstein constructs his monster exactly the way he sees fit. But Frankenstein is neither a woman nor a god—he is only a man. Once he brings his unnatural creation to life, he finds it utterly repulsive and rejects it. The monster lives—and worse, begins to feel and think.
>The monster’s tragic fate stems not only from its natural desire for love, but also from the fact that neither it nor its individual parts ever wished to be brought back to life—no one even asked. Nonetheless, the creator condemned them to live. The nameless monster must exist and must live, but it is in no way prepared for that role—just as Victor Frankenstein was not prepared for the role of God or mother. No one taught the monster how or why to live, and from both its creator and human society (which, in essence, humans created to protect themselves from predators), it receives only one answer: “You are a hideous abomination.”
