Frankenstein Part 482: The Death of Frankenstein's Father — and the Collapse of Victor Himself

Shelley pauses here to render the elder Frankenstein with genuine tenderness — a man whose emotional world had narrowed to Elizabeth alone, whose remaining love made her loss unsurvivable. The portrait is brief and immaculate: eyes wandering in vacancy, affection that had nowhere left to go. The apoplectic fit arrives not as drama but as inevitability. Then Victor disappears entirely into a void of his own — chains and darkness, sensation lost, the self dissolved. It is the novel's quietest annihilation, and Shelley writes it in almost no words at all.
