About this listen
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson tells the story of the lawyer Gabriel John Utterson as he investigates some disturbing incidents involving his old friend, the talented doctor Henry Jekyll, and his mysterious and sinister new companion, Edward Hyde. The lawyer is worried about his friend after he changes his will to include Hyde in case of his death or disappearance. Fearing that the doctor is being blackmailed by the stranger, the lawyer sets out to confront him.
Upon meeting the man, the lawyer is repulsed by his appearance, although he can't quite put his finger on exactly what it is about the man that disturbs him. And when the subject of the newcomer is brought up with the doctor, he refuses to discuss it and begs the lawyer to leave Hyde alone. But when Hyde is seen murdering a highly regarded MP, Utterson begins to fear the worst for his friend. So when the murderer disappears, and the doctor starts to return to his old self, he is relieved that the nightmare may be over. But after the death of Dr. Hastie Lanyon, an old friend of Jekyll and Utterson, it starts to seem as if Hyde has returned. And when a shocking discovery is made in Dr. Jekyll's laboratory, the truth about what he's been up to starts to be uncovered.
The book was first published in 1886 and was a huge success; it has seen dozens of film and stage adaptations over the years and remains one of Stevenson's most popular pieces of work.

Story
In this short book illuminated by a deep understanding and love of humanity, John Steinbeck retells an old Mexican folk tale: the story of the great pearl, how it was found, and how it was lost. For the diver Kino, finding a magnificent pearl means the promise of a better life for his impoverished family. His dream blinds him to the greed and suspicions the pearl arouses in him and his neighbors, and even his loving wife cannot temper his obsession or stem the events leading to the tragedy. For Steinbeck, Kino and his wife illustrate the fall from innocence of people who believe that wealth erases all problems.

Story
Hamlet, Shakespeare's most popular, and perhaps most puzzling play, follows the form of a "revenge tragedy", in which the hero, Hamlet, seeks vengeance against his father’s murderer, his uncle Claudius, now the king of Denmark. Much of its fascination, however, lies in its uncertainties. This new full-cast recording - based on the most respected edition of Shakespeare's classic - expertly produced by the Folger Theatre, is perfect for students, teachers, and the everyday listener.

It tells the story of mild-mannered lawyer G.J. Utterson who becomes alarmed by the odd behavior of his friend and client Dr. Henry Jekyll. After apparently befriending the mysterious and ill-tempered Edward Hyde, Dr. Jekyll's behavior becomes erratic and after a local murder is attributed to Hyde, the lawyer is forced to conclude that his friend has been caught up in a sinister extortion scheme. This thrilling story has become so intertwined with our cultural narrative that "Jekyll and Hyde" has become shorthand for those people with seemingly split personalities.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde come to life!
This version of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde is an instant classic and must own for any fan of Robert Louis Stevenson. The narrator, David McCallion, does a tremendous job with this book, bringing life to each character with their own voice throughout the book. My only wish is that he gave a bit more of a scary demeanor to the voice of Mr. Hyde, but don’t let that deter you from getting this wonderful rendition of an all-time classic story.
Some of the best novels ever published are those that focus on someone with a dark secret. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is no different, and is one of the best classic tales of deceit, death, and confusion. Robert Louis Stevenson is a master at keeping my attention, giving only a few bread crumbs to lead me on the trail until the whole backstory is revealed. The good-natured lawyer Mr. Utterson is growing suspicious of Dr. Jekyll's friend, Mr. Hyde, especially when he discovers that Dr. Jekyll has drawn up paperwork leaving all his belongings to the strange Mr. Hyde should anything happen to him.
It seems that with every little misfortune that occurs in town, either Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde are always involved. This fact again scares Mr. Utterson, and we eventually find out that Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are one and the same; Mr. Hyde simply represents the pleasure-seeking part of Dr. Jekyll who emerges from time to time. This, we know at the end, is destructive. Part mystery, part shocker, David McCallion takes us through all of the ups and downs of the trickery, the deceit, and the suspense this novel has to offer. Definitely a great addition to your audiobook library!
