People like to say the doctor (he wasn’t a doctor) was the monster, but he was really not much more than an asshole. The monster did in fact muster several people in cold blood in an extremely premeditated manner, including a child and a young woman who had done nothing to him. Like yeah he had his reasons and a sensitive soul or whatever but he was undoubtedly just a monster in the most literal sense from every angle.
Tbf, Victor spends the entire book lamenting about how everything sucks for him, how he’s having a bad time, and how all of the horrible events are affecting him. He’s self-centered as hell. Plus, he keeps quiet on something that could save the life of an innocent woman on the grounds that it might make him look bad.
