About this listen

 The Creature, living beside the De Lacey cottage, finds a satchel of books and is profoundly shaped by Werter’s sorrow, Plutarch’s noble lives, and the awe of Paradise Lost. Discovering Victor’s journal, he learns of his “accursed origin,” plunging him into despair yet strengthening his resolve to seek the cottagers’ acceptance. He plans to approach the blind father alone and, on a cold autumn day, he enters and is received with kindness. As the Creature reveals himself, the children return; horrified, Felix attacks, and the Creature flees in anguish.
