FOTMP (1818): Part 2 Chapter 3

[Eric]

Synopsis: The monster awakes, spends time in the forest, goes to a town and finds out he is repugnant, then hides in the shed of an old man and his kids(?)

Commentary: This is actually a better and more tragic story than pop culture. I wonder if there's room for an adaptation that hews more closely to the book. Would audiences just reject it out of hand?

Also: "and it presented to me then as exquisite and divine a retreat as Pandæmonium appeared to the dæmons of hell after their sufferings in the lake of fire" how the eff does the monster know about this? (Which I think is a reference to Paradise Lost?)
