Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley — Chapter 11

The Creature recalls his first bewildering days of existence as light, sound, hunger, cold, and warmth slowly become intelligible to him. After discovering fire and venturing beyond the forest, his fascination with human life turns abruptly to fear when a village reacts to his appearance with panic and violence.

Bruised and driven into hiding, he finds shelter beside a secluded cottage. Through a narrow opening, he begins quietly observing its inhabitants, encountering music, tenderness, sorrow, and family affection for the first time.
