DescriptionNY: Doubleday, 1990. (Uncorrected Proof). Trade Paperback. VERY GOOD+. Tight, bright, clean & square. Bump to bottom of spine. A few dog-eared pages. Otherwise, as new. Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde from the maid's point-of-view. Film w/Julia Roberts. ISBN: 0385249683. Book summaryThis alternative version of Robert Louis Stevenson's THE STRANGE CASE OF DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE is seen through the eyes of Dr. Jekyll's maid, Mary Reilly, in her journal entries. Abused as a child, grateful for the position as maid in the doctor's house, and attracted by his gentle and respectful ways, Mary Reilly witnesses Jekyll's tragic transformation and ultimately comes to know his secret. The parallels between the abused Mary and her ravaged employer lend the novel an extra magnitude of psychological insight, but MARY REILLY can also be read simply as a harrowing thriller. The book was made into a 1996 movie, starring Julia Roberts and John Malkovich. Similar books from this booksellerFrom this bookseller's FICTION catalog.
