No, this is a run on sentence. Too many ands. If you stopped after "and passions of both the monster and Victor." That's OK (although you don't need to say "both" because you're listing monster and Victor).
The next bit needs to be re-written into a new sentence.

This sounds like a great sentence to me. I would say it is a run on sentence, but you didn't use the word "and" to connect your ideas, only your descriptions. Therefore, this is a wonderful and grammatically correct sentence. (BTW, I love Mary Shelley's version of Frankenstein!!!)

the question is in the present tense, and makes grammatical sense.. but the last part is questionable. wot does "a novel of its time" mean? perhaps a "great" novel would be more apt. Use more commas, to differentiate your sentence into clauses. It helps in deciphering longer sentences.

That is a painful, run-on sentence. There is a place to break it into at least two sentences, and you need a comma to pause on the dependent clause...

For clarity's sake, you say "such themes"...which? ... and you don't need "both"

To everyone -- this is a run-on sentence, therefore it is NOT grammatically correct.

A bit vague -- especially "a novel of its time" -- and run-on, but it's a grammatically correct sentence.
