FrankensteinFlood


Did anyone else feel overwhelmed when reading Frankenstein? I did.


In fact, the interesting thing for me is that I found it a little hard to read and focus upon because of the intensely swirling and emotionally charged nature of the work. It disturbed at times.


There's a lot of energy in there, and it's almost too much for me. In a way, I think I really gained a better understaning of what exactly "Romanticism"really means. I felt it first hand...directly influence me.


Almost like getting buried under a tidal wave or washed away in a flood of emotional energy.
Quick, somebody get me a good boat and some oars, so that I can steer safely through here!
