Frankenstein

The beginning of the book Frankenstein is interesting.My mind really wondered while reading these letters Robert wrote to his sister margaret. Is Robert gay? Why didn't his sister ever write him back? I think its very interesting the way they find the man . They were stuck between ice and when the ice freed the ship, they saw that they were closer to land than they thought. Robert always told his sister that he wanted, well the one thing he was missing was a friend. After the man he found was in the ship a while he begin to think of the man ass his friend. Robert didn't think he would find a friend. " I said in one of my letters my dear Margaret, that I should find no friend on the wide ocean, yet I have found a man who, before his spirit had been broken by misery, I should have been happy to have possessed as the brother of my heart."(Shelley 15) After reading that it has me thinking maybe just maybe Robert is not gay but lonely.
