Frankenstein is a classic science fiction story however the concept we have of Frankenstein today is much different than the original story that came out years ago. The origninal story by Mary Shelly actually never called the monster Frankenstein. On the other hand, today we know the green monster that was pieced together and brought back from the dead only as Frankenstien.
There are many more differences between the book and the frankenstein story we know today. For example, the doctor that creates Frankenstien in the book is portrayed more normal than the crazy doctor that we think he is. Also, in the novel the monster was portrayed with more of a tabula rasa than in the movies where the monster is seen as slow.
The Frankenstien we know today is a big green monster with bolts in his head and has no capability of speech. Somehow this monster came from the childlike man that the doctor created in Mary Shelly's book years ago.
