A Method Actor's Guide to Jekyll and Hyde

Reviews / Votes

'MacNeil's novel, though drawing on Stevenson's novella, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, is never slavishly derivative. His Method Actor's Guide is, in its finest glinting moments, that "whole new thing" of which Hemingway wrote, and from first to last an enticing read' -- Tom Adair * Scotsman * 'It is a phenomenally good novel. It is brilliant, touching, funny and clever. It is also a sign that Kevin MacNeil is only just starting. Some of you out there can look forward to another 30 or 40 years of such quality and better. You are very lucky. We are lucky' -- Roger Hutchinson * West Highland Free Press * 'A Method Actor's Guide to Jekyll and Hyde is a great book...intricate and powerful' * The Skinny * 'A writer with a real sense of the human condition ... Written with insight, wit and wisdom, it's a black comedy with serious things to say' * The Big Issue * 'For all the big ideas, clever wordplay and subtle themes, A Method Actor's Guide remains a wonderful romp of a book, a funny, irreverent and moving 21st-century look at human nature, and an intriguing rewiring of a classic' -- Doug Johnstone * The Herald *
