Book Overview

by Robert Louis Stevenson (Author)

As you stroll along the streets of London in the company of lawyer Utterson and his distant relative Enfield, the latter narrates a gruesome tale of assault he had witnessed some months ago. The tale describes a dreadful looking sinister man, Mr. Hyde, who ruthlessly tramples a young girl and disappears behind a door. A moment later he reemerges to pay off her relatives with a cheque drawn from the account of a reputable gentleman, later identified to be Utterson's client and old friend, Dr. Jekyll.

Who is Mr. Hyde ?

Who is Dr. Jekyll ?

Is there a mysterious connection between the two ?

Read Stevensons thrilling and titillating masterpiece, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, to knit up the jigsaw puzzle and unveil the suspense.

A harrowing tale of good and evil, this classic novella describes the fundamental dichotomy of the 19th century - outward respectability and inward lust, a duality for which it has been noted as one of the best guidebooks of the Victorian era and remains one of the most famous stories of English literature.

About Robert Louis Stevenson

Throughout his life, Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was plagued by ill health, which interrupted his formal education at Edinburgh University. Pursuing the life of a bohemian during his twenties and thirties, he traveled around Europe and formed the basis of his first two books, An Inland Journey (1878) and Travels with a Donkey (1879). Stevenson gained his first popular success with Treasure Island (1883). The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, which sold forty thousand copies in six months, and Kidnapped appeared in 1886, followed by The Black Arrow (1888) and The Master of Ballantrae (1889). In 1888, he set out with his family for the South Seas, traveling to the leper colony at Molokai, and finally settling in Samoa, where he died.
