I like the structure of J & H, but would agree that it's probably not the best from a critique standpoint. I love the fact that it starts with two minor characters talking about a door. Also, Mr. Utterson is one of my favorite characters ever. Curious too about the reveal, does the story work now that it has become so ingrained in history? I did for me, but I like Stevenson probably more than is healthy.

Would you say Jekyll and Hyde is an updated version of a werewolf story? With the wolfman created by science gone awry?
