Writing Style After she finished writing the novel, Mary Shelley changed the beginning to introduce Captain Walton. Why? When Mary Shelley lived, it was popular in novels to introduce a character like Captain Walton. This is because the main character (Victor Frankenstein) can become the narrator and tell their story to this person. In Japanese stories, the voice that says “ 昔々あるところに,” is the narrator`s voice.
