'All human beings, as we meet them, are commingled out of good and evil: and Edward Hyde, alone, in the ranks of mankind, was pure evil.' A masterclass in the gothic novel, and a poignant commentary of the duality of humankind, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is an enduring classic. Something unsettling is afoot in Victorian London. After a series of violent crimes – including the trampling of a young girl and ruthless murder of a well-respected gentleman – Mr Utterson takes it upon himself to investigate the one person he believes is responsible: the abominable Mr Hyde. Meanwhile, Utterson's friend, the intelligent and esteemed scientist Dr Jekyll, begins behaving peculiarly. He becomes elusive, spending more time in his lab and acting inexplicably. As the sinister Hyde continues to wreak havoc on London society to devastating consequences, Utterson begins to spot connections between the criminal and Dr Jekyll. Could it be that his dear friend and this murderous brute are somehow related? Stevenson's depiction of the fragmented self, and the struggle between one's inner conflicts, still resonates a hundred years later. This audiobook edition is read by award-winning narrator, Johnathan Keeble. Robert Louis Stevenson (1850 – 1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet and travel writer. Best known for his novels Treasure Island and Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, his worked spanned from romance and adventure writing to gothic dark realism. He remains one of the most translated authors in the world.
