Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed reading this book, to me it was confusing at first then it got very interesting near the end. The novel is about a well respected doctor (Mr. Hyde) that invents a posion that can change a person into their alter ego. Dr. Jekyll drinks this posion, and becomes a character we know as (Mr. Hyde.) Mr. Hyde is known as a very disrupeted character that is responsible for the murder of Sir Danvers Carew. Before the Carew murder, Jekyll had become a disrupted person himself. After the Carew murder, Mr. Hyde is not seen nor heard from for a long time. The night of the Carew murder, Hyde leaves a note for Mr. Utterson. Also after Mr. Utterson received Mr. Hyde's letter he had received a dinner invitation from Dr. Jekyll that matched in handwritting to the letter from Mr. Hyde. After this Mr. Utterson investigates and later finds out that Mr. Hyde is only a figure of a posion. My Hyde is Dr. Jekyll's alter ego. At the end of the novel Hyde takes over Dr. Jekyll therefor, he kills himself. This novel was interesting because it makes you wonder whiel reading the novel, how is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde connected, and who really killed Carew? At first, I thought that Mr. Hyde and Dr. Jekyll were good friends and Dr. Jekyll was lying for Mr. Hyde so that Mr. Utterson wont know his whereabouts. Later I thought that Dr. Jekyll was helping Mr. Hyde get away with the Carew murder, and was plotting to kill Mr. Utterson. It was even more interesting to find out that Mr. Hyde was only Dr. Jekyll's alter ego from a posion that Dr. Jekyll Invented.Book Review: duality
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is so great b/c it deals with the duality of man's nature. Dr. jekyll goes through a constant struggle between his normal self and Mr. hyde his primal more animalistic self. All together this book is a stoke of pure literary genius and I would be glad to read it again.
