look. i don’t think my stretch marks are beautiful. i don’t think they’re tiger stripes or natural tattooos. i don’t think my acne is beautiful. i don’t think the bags under my eyes are beautiful. i just think they’re human. and i don’t think i have to be beautiful all of the time in order to be accepted and loved and sucessful. i don’t think every small detail of my outer appearence needs to be translated into prettiness.
I read chapter 1 and 2 and have many thoughts about Victor's childhood and personality. Sorry for the long post.
First of all, he's first five years of life were privileged and self-centered. At the time he was a only child pampered be his rich parents, never knowing hardship. Through the chapters, he talks about how his parents were never strict, how they were nice, good people, etc.
This brings up, again, the facts that he never experienced real consequences for his actions, don't know how the real world works - believing that in the end everything always work out if you try hard enough - and see everything through the egocentric lens that he can never be wrong, everyone else just can't see his brilliance.
We can see this with his initial pursuit of knowledge about the Natural Sciences. He became interested in alchemy and don't believe his father about the lack veracity in this studies. He persists in this journey to the elixir of eternal life, seeking fame, but never stops to reflect what this discovery could mean to the world in its practical application.
He just stops when after receiving irrevocable proof that his scientific branch is wrong. This first disappointment's already too much to his ego, and instead of just correcting himself, he completely abandons the Natural Sciences as if it personally insulted him and his world view.
You can also see Victor's egocentrism from how, even though we learn he has a younger brother, he never tell us his brother's name and he never features in his stories of childhood. This brothers existence challenge his belief of being the center of his family, the center of his everything, so, therefore, is discarded.
We could talk, also, about how his relationship and thoughts about Elizabeth differ from his relationship and thoughts about his brother. He don't see Elizabeth as his own person, or even as family, not really. Ever since his mother presented her as "a gift" to him, that's how he views Elizabeth. She is but a extension of Victor, how he sees her is just a reflection of how he sees himself She's, like him, perfect in everyway and, as his present, every compliment she receives is a compliment to him, his "owner". Because that's what we do with objects that belong to us, if someone says: "I like your bracelet" the correct responde would be "thanks", because this person isn't really complimenting the bracelet, but its owner.
I'm stopping here, thanks for reading.
I’d like to thank my friend Avistew Teague for translating this!
