This was written a long time ago. I can tell because I almost had a nosebleed. The English way of writing was old, but I truly enjoyed it. DID in the good old days. I of course found the murders by  Edward Hyde problematic, but I guess, he was made like that in contrast with Dr. Henry Jekyll. I liked that they were distinct in appearance, morality, and tone of voice. The audiobook companion made the story a hundred times better. Great narrator✨
