Publisher Description

Lo strano caso del Dr. Jekyll e Mr. Hyde di Robert Louis Stevenson è un romanzo psicologico imperniato sulla vicenda di un medico che scopre la doppia natura degli esseri umani e che si propone di creare un farmaco capace di separare le due anime dell'uomo, consentendo loro di vivere esistenze separate. Così il mite Dr. Jekyll diviene Mr. Hyde, un uomo astuto, passionale e malvagio, dotato di una forza sovrumana. Quando l'effetto del farmaco si esaurisce, l'animo selvaggio e immorale di Hyde è riassorbito nelle profondità della coscienza del dottore, ma a poco a poco, trasformazione dopo trasformazione, il mostro sembra prendere il sopravvento...

Dr. Jekyll e Mr. Hyde è un'opera della collana LibriVivi Colossal. L'audiolibro diventa un vero e proprio film da ascoltare, con narrazioni, dialoghi, effetti sonori e musiche.

"Nothing like settling down with an old classic and being brilliantly surprised. Jekyll and Hyde is one of those stories where you think you know it all after the countless interpretations rolled out year after year. The story starts as a mystery. We are told of peoples' strange interactions with a new resident of London. The dwarfish and creepy Edward Hyde. As a lawyer known as Mr Uterrson investigates he discovers there is a strong link between this Mr Hyde and the well respected Dr Jekyll. When Mr Hyde is implicated in a murder it becomes necessary to find this strange man. At the halfway point it switches to Dr Jekyll's versions of events and I don't think it's spoiling anything to say that Hyde and Jekyll are one and the same. What's great is that Jekyll's motive is to isolate all the evil and malevolence inside every human being, but as we soon see, this anger and aggression is part of human nature and is almost healthy in a way. Hyde represents the horror of bottling it all up. It soon becomes an addiction and Jekyll becomes the alter ego and becomes almost a distant memory. It does build up the suspense and works splendidly in its execution. It's no wonder that this is known by all, as it has an important message hidden in a fun and simple story."

    " The style was definitely old-fashioned, but I think that helped me see this more as a fable or parable than a really plot-driven booked. I knew roughly what was going to happen, but enjoyed reading Stevenson's descriptions of duality. "
