Anyone who's read the original will realize that Venables has turned the story upon its head. In this version, Viktor marries his cousin before he creates the monster, after which he retires alone to a deserted family castle, where he works to create the monster. The creature mostly remains barricaded in the dilapidated castle with Viktor until their final struggle. Viktor's internal dilemma over his creation is starkly portrayed: at first he is full of grandiose thoughts, certain his work is divinely inspired. Then he becomes tormented by nightmares and shifts his prespective entirely, believing that evil has infiltrated his mind for its own purposes. Even though it deviates from the original, I enjoyed reading this strange, macabre and haunting story.
