Jekyll and Hyde – Chapter 3 (Part 1)

Dr Jekyll Was Quite At Ease

This is one of my favorite chapters of the book as far as really seeing the relationship between Utterson and Jekyll and getting more of a feel for what has been going on from Jekyll himself (a rare voice in the book).

As usual I’m up in arms again about why men interpret this book the way they do. Why do they see Jekyll and Hyde in such a ridiculously biased and predictable way? I wonder what a woman might do with the source material and how she would interpret Jekyll and Hyde as people. It seems all the versions I have seen everyone has this warped view of everything and I don’t understand why.

Why does no one like this book as it is written? Or any classic for that matter? Why do they just toss it in the trash and do what they prefer instead?
