He was soon born away by the waves and lost in darkness and distance

And do you dream do you think that I was then dead to agony and remorse? He suffered not in the consummation of the deed, not the 10,000th portion of the English that was mine during the lingering detail of its execution a frightful selfishness hurried on me while my heart was poisoned with remorse.

Do you dream?

Think about it, killing Victor would be too easy. More painful to keep him alive to suffer while those he cares about are murdered. For someone who’s supposed to be really smart, he sure lacks common sense!

I might have put into the harbour ignorant of the distance of the town of *** from the place where I had disposed of the corpse.

*** because he doesn’t know where he is? It’s weird that it’s written that way vs when the monster didn’t know what people were saying he’d just say that

I just understood the “monster” was telling his story. Still doesn’t justify him burning houses and murdering. Found out he placed the photo on the girl though. No wonder she didn’t explain why she had it. She had no idea why she had it!!!

“For the first time the feelings of revenge and hatred filled my bosom…”

No i don’t think so….
