Frankenstein, Mary Shelley
"'And do you dream?'... daemon." 182
This is a question that is meant to bring Robert Walton back into reality. The question, asked by Frankenstein's creature, is not inquiring if he is capable of dreaming. It is telling him in question form to wake up because what is happening is real. Victor is really dead and his creation is really standing there talking to him. Dreams seem to be a large theme in Frankenstein. This question represents reality, and the concept of the difference between waking and dreaming
