So Today I learned that Frankenstein is not the name of the Monster on which the book Frankenstein is centred, instead, it is the name of the scientist who created him – Victor Frankenstein.
I feel like an idiot for not knowing that, Everyone I’ve spoken to seems to have known this.
I listened to the audiobook through the Overdrive App. It was a great listen, it seemed like every word was finely crafted to fit each sentence.
The version I listened to was read by three voice actors. Anthony Heald, Stefan Rudnicki and Simon Templeman. It was really well done.
My favourite part of the book was probably Victors quotes of the monster’s first-person narrative.
I like this quote about the book.
Many critics have described the novel itself as monstrous, a stitched-together combination of different voices, texts, and tenses.
