There are no difficult questions here . . . if you have read the novel. What do YOU think? Discussions of this nature are great, but only if you initiate with input of your own. This is a great book. I cried the first time I read it.

Well, it seems like he is trying to discovering something new, something to change the world and his sense of himself-- maybe he wants to be remembered in history for discovering something great? I sensed that he felt that a person like him, with ambition and intelligence, was rare in his world and he had to travel alone to seek glory. When he finally meets Frankenstein, he meets someone of his caliber, like himself, intelligent and ambitious. But what he learns from him is that such things can lead to terrible things. In other words, be careful what you wish for.
