A great book! Usually such old books fail to keep modern audience attention but this one is engaging until the very end. Highly reccomended. Some fun facts: The book is set in the POV of Jekyll's lawyer, not himself. The 1931 adaptation by Rouben Mamoulian is credited with being the best film made from the story (even though the two stories are vastly different with the exceptions of a few characters and the basic plot points). The book is less than 100 pages.
