Dr. Jekyll ve Bay Hyde

by C.E.L. Welsh (Adapter), Lalit Kumar Sharma (illustrator), Robert Louis Stevenson

Gözü pek, hayalci bir karakter olan Henry Jekyll bilimsel deneyimlerini kullanarak insanı; biri tamamıyla saf, diğeri ise bir o kadar şeytani olacak iki farklı varlığa ayırabileceğine inanır. Bir kişinin özünde bu bölünmeyi yaratacak kimyasal iksiri hazırlamak için yorulmak bilmeden gizli laboratuarında çalışan doktor, sonunda yarım yamalak da olsa bir sonuca ulaşır.

İyi ve kötü yarıları ayırmak yerine Jekyll sadece ikincisini ortaya çıkarmakta başarılı olmuştur. Önceleri bu bile ona bir teselli gibi geldiyse de bu dönüşümde kontrolü kaybettikçe kendini bir kâbusun içinde bulur. Arkadaşları Jekyll'in haline acıyıp her geçen gün daha da kötüleşmesinden endişelenirler.

Jekyll acaba yaptığını düzeltebilecek midir? Ya da her şeyi sonsuza kadar değiştirmiş mi olacaktır?

This graphic novel was an acceptable rendition of the famous story just about everyone has heard of, even if they don't realize the source material.

Interestingly, a profile of six "mad scientists" at the book's conclusion profiles three vivisectors:



Kinda makes you want to join an animal welfare society, doesn't it?



And of course, the famous...



Interestingly, Rene Descartes isn't depicted, despite being the father of modern vivisection--he was infamous for his live dissections of helpless creatures.

This was super helpful to read alongside the actual book. Helped fill in any holes I missed while reading the story.

El deseo del bien conlleva el encuentro con el mal. La dualidad y el constante dilema del humano al tratar de equilibrar la balanza, al querer ser mejor.

Amo mucho esta historia en todas sus versiones, aunque me picó un poco las vestimentas y el diseño de los personajes pero como siempre increíble

Good art work but the difference in Jeckyl and Hyde images could have been more starker . Some scenes it is difficult to make out the difference . Words could have been simplified for the current era .

I enjoyed flicking through this graphic novel, I think it's a good idea to introduce them in an effort to spark kids interest in reading the classics, maybe it will inspire the occasional adult too. I am very familiar with this story as it is one of my favourite books. A true classic and one which I believe everyone should read as the duality of man is something we should all believe in because it's so true!

Sometimes the graphic novel replaced the original language with more modern terms which I thought was unnecessary and a poor idea but it is still worth picking up
