"I said...brother of my heart."35
Robert Walton is the main narrator in the book Frankenstein. He is traveling to the North Pole to research the earth's magnetic energy. He has a very romantic way of speaking. He uses very graceful words to describe his surroundings. And loving words to describe the people who are close to him. There is a question of homosexuality that is a factor in the story as well. Robert is always talking about wanting a male companion who understands him like no other, "a brother of my heart." But then again he speaks about everyone and everything in a very poetic manner.
