Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Author : R. L. Stevehson

Main charactes : Utterson, Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde, Mr. Enfield, Dr. Lanyon

level 4, page 71

Summary : Utterson was a lower, and he was not friendly among normal people, but he was very kind and nice man among his friends. He has cousin named Mr. Enfield, and one day, he told Utterson about strange and dangerous evil man named Mr. Hyde. It was quite strange story because Mr. Hyde used Dr. Jekyll who was Utterson's best friend's check... Who was Mr. Hyde? Utterson also had Dr. Lanyon as a best friend. Utterson, Dr. Lanyon and Dr. Jekyll were best friends for long time ago. There was a murder at that time, and the murderer was Mr. Hyde obviously. After that, Dr. Jekyll got crazy, and later, Dr. Lanyon would die... What happened them? Why was Mr. Hyde so evil? Utterson would know the end of this story by Dr. Jekyll's will...

Personal response : I like it! it was like Sherlock Holmes!! I LOVE detective story, and actually this was not, but mystery. I did know "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", but just name. Since I have been watched the movie named "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" I misunderstood Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde... They were completaly different between movie and book... Anyway! it was nice book!

Rate : 4+

Level for me :normal
