Walton’s letters play an important role because‚ the reader may find many foreshadowed themes‚ and as the novel progresses they will realize how Walton and Victor Frankenstein share similar views on their life’s roles; as both men are driven by an excessive ambition‚ they both have a desire to accomplish
