Question 5 • (Gosciewski) WCA 0431 English 12 - 1st 9 weeks 26-27
Jekyll’s letter directs Utterson to read Lanyon’s narrative and then Jekyll’s confession, setting up the explanations that reveal what has happened. This is a plot device: the letter helps deliver important information and move the story forward. It is not the climax, which is the story’s major turning point, or the resolution, which concludes the conflict.
