In the book, Frankenstein, a man recreated life, creating a monster that in his perspective ruined his life. Through out the book, there are many times where the monster and Frankenstein go through trials. In the end, it almost seems like the monster is more human than it's own creator.
When Frankenstein, the creator, first found that he had recreated life, he ran from his creation. This new life, like a child, did not know anything about life, it was helpless. Frankenstein should have instinctively felt compassion for his creation, like a new parent, and should have helped the monster through its infant stage, rather than running away and leaving it to fend for itself. In a way, because the monster did what it could in the circumstance it was in, the monster's reaction was more human than Frankenstein's reaction.
After learning on its own many things about life and the world, the monster went to search for it's creator to seek a little companionship because he was a little lonely. When Frankenstein once again rejected it, the monster asked for a new creation to be formed for it. Frankenstein could have thought about how hard life had been for his creation and formed the other creature, but instead only thought of the monster as evil. Feeling no compassion towards the creature, Frankenstein decided against it, leaving the monster to feel hatred towards his creator. In this way, the reaction from the monster seems much more human than the way Frankenstein treated his creation.
There are many more instances where Frankenstein rejects or ignores the monster, as if it did not exist, and then the monster's reaction seemed to be more human than Frankenstein's reaction. Because of the monster's and Frankenstein's reactions to both of these instances above, the monster appears to react in a way that is more human than that of Frankenstein's.
