Frankenstein ch 21-22

1. Who has been murdered, and why is Victor accused of the murder?
Henry, Victor's friend was murdered, and the murderer escaped in a boat like the one Victor ARRIVED in.
2. What finally brings about his release?
I think that he gets out of jail because his father comes.
3. Why does Victor feel he can’t be with people? What opinion does Victor express about his creation?
He can't be with people because he released a monster among them. This shows how sorry he is that he created a monster, and that he thinks that he shouldn't have done it.
4. Why doesn’t Victor tell of the creature’s existence and its crimes? Do you think he is right or wrong?
He basically says that the creature should not exist, and that his crimes were barbaric. I think that he is right.
5. The monster vowed to be with Victor on his wedding night. What has Victor assumed the monster meant? Could it have some other meaning?
Victor assumes that the monster will show up to kill him on the day of his wedding, it COULD mean (but I doubt it) that the monster will be there to celebrate Victor's wedding. It could also mean that he will kidnap/murder Elizabeth.
6. What will Victor tell Elizabeth after they are married? Give your opinion of this plan.
He will tell her about the creation of the monster. I think that this is a good idea, I think he should have told her right away after William was murdered.
7. How does Elizabeth feel about the wedding? Why is she anxious?
Elizabeth is HAPPY that they are going to be wed, but she is fearful about the secret Victor will reveal to her.
8. What do you think will happen on Victor’s wedding night?
I think that the monster will kidnap Elizabeth, and take her elsewhere and possibly murder her!
