Dr.Jekyll and Mr Hyde

I like the novel ,"Dr .Jekyll and Mr Hyde" because the plot is goog .It is spine -chilling and full of suspence .The novel is about a brillint scientist ,Dr .Jekyll whose desire to become evil prompt him to experiment a drug so that he can become evil when he feels like it .He succeeds at first to lead a double life but finds that it is increasingly difficult to revert to his good self once he assumes the personality of the evil Edward Hyde .He has no choice but to kill himself .I also like the story because it teaches me not to become evil .If we are evil ,we will eventually be punished ,just like Mr .Hyde.

It tells about the suffering caused by the food famine during the Irish 'potato blight' in 1840's. many Irish folk rushed to the port in York, hoping to migrate to the New World, America.

The most exciting event in Potato People

To me ,the most exciting event in the novel ,' Potato People ' ,is when Patrick Flyne and Marie went to the big and beautiful rich English Lord's house .Flynne stared at it .Through the window ,he could see bountiful food and well-dressed people .They were all nice .There was music .Marie then led the way and they ended up in the kitchen .It was funny in the manner in which they grabbed the food ;at the same time trembling with fear .If they were caught ,they would have been sent to prison for sure .Fortunately ,they were not ;and later ,they enjoyed themselves gobbling down the exquisite food .
