I enjoyed the story it was a classic I had wanted to listen to. Though I was surprised that Jekyll and Hyde aren’t day and night. I thought Jekyll didn’t know about Hyde.

Good story, wish it was a longer story

I really did enjoy this from start to finish. I really enjoyed Jekyll’s last letter describing what he had done and the nature of his duality. How at first he was able to separate his good nature from that of Hyde’s when he transformed or so he claimed. However as it went on you could see his dilemma and how it presented him with an even bigger problem that lead to his demise. I enjoyed the narrator as well! I added this version to my favorites!

It captures you as most classics do!
