⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
While Sheena Blackhall’s translation demonstrates significant linguistic effort, the North-East Scots dialect imposes a substantial barrier for readers unfamiliar with Doric phonology and vocabulary. It does not suit those seeking a straightforward retelling of Stevenson’s plot or readers who prefer standard English Gothic horror. Consequently, it is best approached as a linguistic experiment or a collector’s item for dialect enthusiasts rather than an entry point to classic horror fiction.
