I am the main narrator for Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein."  I am a whaling boat captain in the arctic, and I write letters home to my sister, telling her about my experiences.  People often say I am unreliable as a narrator and my information seems to be a bit skewed because I did not witness the events that Victor dictates to me.
