Read this excerpt from Frankenstein: I collected bones from charnel-houses, and disturbed, with profane fingers, the tremendous secrets of the human frame. In a solitary chamber, or rather cell, at the top of the house, and separated from all the other apartments by a gallery and staircase, I kept my workshop of filthy creation; my eyeballs were starting from their sockets in attending to the details of my employment. Which option best describes the information conveyed by the phrase "a solitary chamber, or rather cell, at the top of the house"? A. Victor's sense of being challenged to understand the structure of the body B. Victor's sense of isolation as he continues his work alone in his apartment C. Victor's awareness that he will come to regret the completion of his work D. Victor's awareness that he is pursuing knowledge others consider forbidden

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein tells the story of a young scientist Victor Frankenstein and his zeal towards achieving the scientific power and access to reanimate life after death. And in his attempt, he brought forth a monster that he despised, leading to his own downfall and destruction.

The given passage is from Chapter 4 of the text where Victor narrates about his work in isolation. He began his nightly work of "collect[ing] bones from charnel-houses" and bringing them to his isolated apartment for his experiment. He describes the location of his apartment as one that is "at the top of the house, and separated from all the other apartments by a gallery and staircase". This gave him ample space and privacy to do his work without any complaints or prying eyes. And as such, he began his work on creating the monster who will haunt his life till his death.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
