Here comes the Suspence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

During chapters 7&8 of this book it has come to my conclusion that the suspence is what Stevenson relies on in the audience to get his plot across in the book. On page 43 Poole the butler says," You know the doctors. . . sir, I'm afraid." Once again stevenson show readers how Jekyll does not want Utterson or any other accquiantance to make anymore inferences about Hyde. He does this through the frighten tone of Poole and the Suspence and suspicious manner of all the events. Then on page 54 in chapter 8 Utterson says to Poole," We have come too... of your master." Again Stevenson uses suspence tone/mood to revail Hyde. Sometimes people will go to great lengths to no have people judge them wronly. Sometimes for the worst it kicks them in the head and backfires causing perminent damage or worse. . . DEATH! Finally on page 56 of chaper 8 the dialogue between Poole and Utterson is very skiddish and the narrator is speaking, " He caught up the . . . Henry Jekyll." Jekyll killed off Hyde so that Utterson and Poole would not perceive him as crazy. When Utterson reads the third enclosure Jekyll will be out of judgement's hands for anyone to think badly of him. Stevenson work this event of disposing of a character into the story very well. It enables the plot to be carried further for questions about Jekyll's wereabouts.

Chapters 5 and 6

A note to whom ever has my blog I would really like some feed back thanks.

In chapters 5 and 6 nothing happens so much with Hyde as is does Jekyll. Hyde has vanished for all intentional purposes of getting his name cleared from the Carew case and Jekyll is not deathly ill and very isolated. In the beginning of chapter 5 Dr. Jekyll says, "Utterson I swear . . . he will never more be heard of." Jekyll cleverly says this because again he does not want Utterson making assumptions about him and he needs to keep his loose ends tight so that Utterson does not figure out that he is in fact Hyde.

Throughout the rest of chapters 5 and 6 nothing much else happens besides that once again Dr. Jekyll becomes himself again and begins to dine with Utterson and Lansdon. After a week or so he becomes ill again and decides to lock himself inside his house. Some how Lansdon dies and Utterson thinks that Dr. Jekyll will be next and becomes very said and aware of the reality and damage that Hyde caused to his dear friend Jekyll.

Hope to hear from the person who has my blog. STOP SLACKING!

Chapters 3&4

In the beginning of chapter three Dr. Jekyll throughs a dinner party and Mr Utterson is invited. He stays after dinner to talk to Jekyll about his will. Page 20: "I have been learning something of young Hyde." The large handsome face of Dr. Jekyll grew pale to th very lips, and there came a blackness about his eyes. "I do not care to hear more," said he. This is a matter I thought we had agreed to drop." This clearly shows how Jekyll does not want Utterson to know about Hyde. It's because he is worried about how he perceives him and how that will eventually lead to Utterson figuring out that he is the one and only Mr. Hyde.

In chapter four it is a year later after the incident after dinner. Hyde murders a man on the sidewalk with a cane that belongs to Dr. Jekyll. This is a crucial part in how people will go the "extra mile" to plant a picture of themselves in people's heads to make sure that they perceive them right. This turns out to be bad for Hyde/Jekyll because a detective along with Utterson find that Jekyll's cane is hidden behind a door in Hyde's room.:/ ouch!
