Synopsis

First published in 1886 as a "shilling shocker," Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde takes the basic struggle between good and evil and adds to the mix bourgeois respectability, urban violence and class conflict. The result is a tale that has taken on the force of myth in the popular imagination. Stevenson s best-known novel for adults stands with Dracula and Frankenstein as one of the horror stories that has come to define the modern mind.
