by: Robert Louis Stevenson

It is about Mr. Utterson, a London based lawyer, who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend Mr. Henry Jekyll and the cynical Mr. Edward Hyde. When he goes through the mysterious will of Mr. Jekyll’s, suspicions are aroused. What is the relationship between the social, respectable Dr. Jekyll and evil Edward Hyde? Who murdered Sir Danvers Crew? What happens next? So begins Stevenson’s horror mystery story which discovers the concept of split personality- in a sense that within the same person there is both a distinct good and a distinct evil personality. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was first published in the year 1886 and as an immediate success and one of Stevenson’s best-selling work.
