Frankenstein Chapter 2, Excerpt 2

By Mary Shelley

Victor Frankenstein continues recounting the influences that lead to his great experiment:

An accident again changed the current of my ideas. When I was about fifteen years old we had retired to our house near Belrive, when we witnessed a most violent and terrible thunderstorm. It advanced from behind the mountains of Jura, and the thunder burst at once with frightful loudness from various quarters of the heavens. I remained, while the storm lasted, watching its progress with curiosity and delight. As I stood at the door, on a sudden I beheld a stream of fire issue from an old and beautiful oak which stood about twenty yards from our house; and so soon as the dazzling light vanished, the oak had disappeared, and nothing remained but a blasted stump. When we visited it the next morning, we found the tree shattered in a singular manner. It was not splintered by the shock, but entirely reduced to thin ribbons of wood. I never beheld anything so utterly destroyed.

Why does the author use only Victor's information in this passage? (5 points)

A. Victor is the one who wrote the novel.

B. Readers enjoy multiple perspectives.

C. It allows Victor to tell the story.

D. It prevents readers from knowing the ending.

The reason why the author uses Victor's information in this passage is:

C. It allows Victor to tell the story.

Explanation:

We can safely choose letter C through elimination. Letter A affirms that Victor wrote the novel. We need to be careful here. Victor is one of the narrators, but he is not the author, he is not the person who wrote the novel. That is Mary Shelley.

Letter B claims that readers enjoy multiple perspectives. There is no way for us to know that. It may or may not be true, but there is nothing to reveal Shelley thought of that when deciding on multiple narrators.

Letter D claims it prevents readers from knowing the ending. That is not necessarily true. If Shelley wishes to have the narrator tell readers the ending right from the start, she can do that. There is no rule to prevent such a thing from happening.

Therefore, we can conclude that using only Victor's information means the author wanted to tell this part of the story from his perspective, wanted to allow him to tell the story. Letter C is the best option.
