it was ok

bookshelves: 2020, audio-2020, horror

I really wanted to like this modern audioplay update of the Jeckyll/Hyde story. Here Stevenson's tale gets updated to the 21st century, which is great, but sadly the story remains bogged down by 19th century narrative techniques -- there is a LOT of letter reading and exposition. A LOT.
