He didn't say anything because "Hey actually the murderer was a zombie I reanimated in another country that followed me here" would have had him committed..
Reading it as "He wanted to protect his image" is such a telling misread, no wonder you people don't feel anything for Frankenstein - do you imagine in his situation you would have saved Jacqueline by publicly declaring yourself a necromancer?

How can you read the novel without sympathising with Frankenstein? The whole story is about how he tries to do something huge and then everyone he loves gets brutally murdered

He did not 'let her hang' what are you talking about

What kind of books did you once read that you wouldn't anymore because they're too nihilistic, out of curiosity?

Reply to What do you do with a book when the writing is good but the premise is dreadfully old fashioned? by frangipaniplumeria
Wait so which is it? Is the prejudice so strong and disgusting you can hardly bring yourself to read it or is it so subtle that you didn't even notice it the first time you read the stories??
