The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

    The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was written by Robert Louis Stevenson. It was published in 1885. This story occurs during old New York times. It is told in third-person omniscient.

    There are 4 main characters. They are: Dr. Jekyll, a respected doctor; Mr. Hyde, the evil man; Mr. Utterson, an elderly lawyer;& Richard, young cousin of Mr. Utterson.

    When Mr. Utterson & his cousin, Richard, were going for a walk they notice a place where Richard saw Mr. Hyde.
Richard talks about what horrible things Mr. Hyde did; like how he ran into a little girl but instead of helping her started stepping on her.
Mr. Utterson finds out that Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde are the same people.
Dr. Jekyll writes his will to Mr. Hyde because he knows he's going to die but Mr. Hyde is not.
Dr. Jekyll dies & Mr. Hyde takes over.

    Robert Louis Stevenson appears to be subjective. Because he made it look at first like Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde are different people.

    The book caused a lot of emotions in me. I felt scarred when Mr. Hyde was trampling the little girl. When Mr. Hyde said he had a lot of money I thought for a second that he was also Dr. Jekyll. I was also made more aware of human nature when it told how Mr. Utterson was reacting to Richard's story. The characters seemed believable. I believed in it because multiple personalities is a real thing. I liked the part when they figured out Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde were the same people because it was interesting how they changed. This story has an enduring theme because it makes you wonder how did all this happen.
