One of these allusions is stated by Frankenstein as he states he “read and re-read [Elizabeth’s] letter and some softened feelings stole into my heart and dared to whisper paradisiacal dreams of love and joy; but the apple was already eaten, and the angel’s arm bared to drive me from all hope” (232). The apple is a reference to the story of Adam and Eve where both Adam and Eve ate an apple from the tree of knowledge. Consequently, Adam and Eve are punished by God for committing such an act he had explicitly stated not to do so.
