About the book

Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is a classic Gothic tale exploring the divided nature of human personality. The respectable Dr Henry Jekyll develops a potion that transforms him into the violent and amoral Edward Hyde. As Hyde grows increasingly powerful, Jekyll loses control over the darker identity he has released. The novella explores repression, morality and the dangerous consequences of separating one part of the self from another.
