Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

De: Robert Louis Stevenson

Narrado por: Christopher Preece

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a Gothic novella by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson, first published in 1886. The work is also known as The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It is about a London lawyer named Gabriel John Utterson who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr. Henry Jekyll, and the evil Edward Hyde. The novella's impact is such that it has become a part of the language, with the very phrase "Jekyll and Hyde" entering the vernacular to refer to people with an unpredictably dual nature: usually very good, but sometimes shockingly evil instead.

Intriguing and Sad Classic

This was an excellent narration of the classic story of Dr. Jekyll. It's a shorter story then a thought but a lot of fun to listen especially with the help of the narrator's incredible accent and acting.

A very well narrated classic...

The story of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is so well known that it probably doesn't need any introduction. It may not be as scary nowadays as it used to be when it was first published, but it still remains a great example of the 19th century Gothic literature, with partly epistolary/story-witin-a-story type of narration and some attempts at psychological insight into the behaviour of the main characters...

Narration by Mr Preece is very good indeed. It brings the story to life, adding a second layer of emotions to it and changing what for some may be a dated book into and exciting novella.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

A classic dealing with the battle of good vs. evil. This book has stood the test of time. Christopher Preece delivered a fantastic performance. I would not hesitate to listen to more of his narrations.

Interesting Read

Another classic book that has passed the test of time. Thank you! I received it free for my honest review.

A Great Classic!

I love this story! I don't think there's anyone living who doesn't recognize the title and what it represents so I'll just comment on the narration. Christopher Preece does an outstanding performance narrating this book. His accent is simply lovely and I really enjoyed listening to him. Mr. Preece does the voices very nicely and really adds to the listening experience.

Classic tale done well!

THe content is a classic for a reason. So what i am really going to let you know is how was the performance. I felt that it made me enjoy the content more than if i had just read it.

i was kind of bored

from movies and stories i have heard about Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde i expected it to be more scary. This one wasn't scary or spooky in the slightest. The way the book is written it's like a biography followed by an autobiography but with very little inflection. I don't know if back when this was first written that the whole unknown thing was more scary, but even though the base of a great spooky/scary story is there, now days it just isn't all the way "finished". The narrator did a great job!

What a story!

Learn something about yourself if you have ears to hear. Excellent story narrated by a masterful voice actor. This is the rendition you want. Excellent production quality.

The classic is a classic

Christopher Preese‘s narration lent even more class to this classic. He has such a way with characters and the tones he learns to his performance is spot on. If an audiobook can become a classic I think Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde will quickly become that. I loved it and highly recommend it.

very good
