A Different Method In writing there are different ways to reveal information about the characters in a story. The most common way is through actions and conversations, but Mary Shelly also uses the setting of each scene to do this. By using this method the story feels more in depth and stays in the reader's mind. Mary Shelly's detailed description of the story's setting makes the story more memorable, helps the reader understand the events, and helps reveal the characters' personalities. First, to illustrate the events of the story a writer uses descriptive and particularly well-thought-out vocabulary. This is done to help the reader visualize the image in the author's mind. But in Mary Shelly's "Frankenstein" she has gone above and beyond, not only does she paint a picture in the reader's mind, but the written words actually put them in a state of mind. A great example of this is when he wrote: "I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed heavily, and a convulsive movement agitated its limbs." Thanks to passages like this, "Frankenstein" has fascinated its readers for nearly two centuries. Not only did it captivate literary minds around the world, the story also made it to the big screen. Mary Shelly's crowning achievement has inspired around fifty films. Unfortunately, much of the created film does not follow the theme of the original story. They branched out from it and depicted creation as an inarticulate, furious monster when it was initially a confused and vengeful genius. Whatever form "Frankenstein has taken root in our society and is here to stay. Secondly, the author's use of setting and time helps to understand why creation did the horrible actions it did For example, when Victor Frankenstein, the creator, returns to the scene of his younger brother's murder and sees his creation for the first time since he abandoned him. Instead of simply writing this, which would most likely have been sufficient, he also describes time including this: “As I watched. during the storm, so beautiful and at the same time terrifying, I wandered with hasty steps." By writing this scene Mary Shelly leads the reader to believe that the murderer is the creation..
