monster's tale

How does the Monster's tale make you feel?

Initially, because of what happened to Justine and William, I hated the monster just as Victor did.  I then felt bad for the monster, though, as he was telling his tale.  I never thought about what the monster was thinking or feeling.  I guess I assumed that the monster awoke, and was just a man because of how big he was.  I never thought that when he awoke, he was essentially a baby who knew nothing, and initially could not even see, hear, or talk.  I feel what has happened is Victor's fault, but not completely because he created it, but more so because of the fact that he abandoned the monster.  If he had stayed with the monster, he could have essentially raised it almost like a child.  Instead he left the monster, and as a result of a chain of events, all the gloom surrounded Victor.
