Robert Louis Stevenson

"Robert Louis Balfour Stevenson (13 November 1850 – 3 December 1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, musician and travel writer. His most famous works are Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and A Child's Garden of Verses. Stevenson was a literary celebrity during his lifetime, and now ranks as the 26th most translated author in the world. His works have been admired by many other writers, including Jorge Luis Borges, Bertolt Brecht, Marcel Proust, Arthur Conan Doyle, Henry James, Cesare Pavese, Emilio Salgari, Ernest Hemingway, Rudyard Kipling, Jack London, Vladimir Nabokov, J. M. Barrie, and G. K. Chesterton, who said that Stevenson ""seemed to pick the right word up on the point of his pen, like a man playing spillikins"".

Samenvatting

The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde follows the story of respectable Dr Jekyll's strange association with the 'damnable young man' Edward Hyde. Dr Jekyll has discovered the ultimate drug: a chemical that can turn him into something else – his monstrous alter-ego. This new edition features an introduction by Denise Mina.





One of the Guardian’s novels everyone must read.

This new edition of Stevenson’s renowned gothic masterpiece has a specially written introduction by Denise Mina.

In The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, London lawyer Gabriel John Utterson investigates a series of sinister events involving his seemingly respectable friend Dr Henry Jekyll and the dangerous and violent criminal known as Edward Hyde. The shocking revelation about their hidden connection has enthralled generations of readers since the book’s first publication in 1886; it is still regarded as one of the most important and influential stories ever written.

A morality tale of good and evil, the book explores the multi-faceted complexities of human nature, duality and class – themes that continue to fascinate and intrigue us today.

'An important book . . . written with great economy, tension and wit' – IAN RANKIN

'An exciting and unexpected read, even for those who think they know the story already' – LOUISE WELSH
