Frankenstein
Theme of chapter 20??
??????
??????
Victor's decision to abandon his second experiment fills the reader with ambivalence. The creator and his creation continue to uncannily double one another, though their relation is now hopelessly confused: Victor is now the creature's "slave," and his life is entirely of the creature's design. It is no longer clear who is the creator, who the creation; who is the father, and who the child.
