Answer and Explanation:

Hello. As it is not possible to know how far you have reached in the book, the answer below may be inaccurate.

By reading the book to the part where the monster travels with sailors, we can make some predictions about what will happen. First, we can see that the monster has an affinity and that he likes to live with human beings, wanting to be among them and learn what they can teach. The monster can then present an idealization about what it is like to live in company with humans. This prediction is supported, mainly because the book takes place during the period of romanticism, when idealization was a frequent theme.

However, the appearance of the monsters keeps humans away from him and even if the monster is intrusive, polite and very intelligent, he will never reach the humans, since his appearance will prevent that from happening.
