I think it’s great: “literature students understand literature shock.”

If you had read the book you would understand the central theme is pathos for the monster. The book is a Gothic tragedy.

Hey go easy on them. The Sun only discovered yesterday it was a book and not just a film. And they find out it was written by a woman….

Reading a book and attempting to understand the themes is pretty snowflakey to be fair.

Lol this has been the mainstream understanding of the book so long that nowadays “Actually the Monster is a jackass too and wasn’t really forced into anything” is the contrarian take

Also OF COURSE the Monster should’ve been protected by human rights laws
You’re telling me you think it’s okay to essentially give birth to an infant and then toss them out on the street with no money, no support and not even able to speak any language
