The role of Mr Utterson Mr Utterson is a key character in Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. He is closely involved with much of the storyline. He also acts as a guide for the reader, and in some ways experiences feelings and reactions that we, as readers, might be expected to share.

Setting Summary In one sense the different places that we visit in the story can be seen as symbols of the divided 19 th century society, in which the rich lived a very different life from the poor, sometimes in parts of the city which were geographically quite close. In a similar way Jekyll and Hyde represent the two very different sides of human beings, contained within the same person. The different places and settings often have an important part of the play in the plot, but they are also sometimes metaphors of other ideas that lie behind the action.
