Each of the locations clearly represent something different to Frankenstein. His home is full of sentimentality and safety. Whereas Ireland, represents the consequences of being an outsider. The less familiar the territory. The role of Boo Radley in Harper Lee's 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is an example of the treatment that an 'outsider' can be expected to recieve. This is a theme that arises in The Rover by Aphra Behn (as we have found out girlies). We discover in Frankenstein that a foreigner is often regarded with suspicion and as Victor finds out can become the victim of uncalled for blame. The reader discovers that there truly is 'no place like home'.
