Vaya ser tan solo, destinado a rechazo a causa de su diferencia, su creador le abandonó...
El aspecto filosófico que aborda el libro es sin duda alguna la soledad ontológica del ser hipérbole de una creatura que lejos de ser tan diferente en escencia se deshumaniza por su propia existencia.
Su destino está marcado y su sentencia dictada.

The monster was cute. It was the ego of the creator that was the problem. Ego is always the problem.
