Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde

In 1886 Robert Louis Stevenson gave the English language a phrase for the divided self. The London lawyer Mr Utterson discovers that the respected Dr Jekyll has left everything to a young man named Hyde, whom nobody likes and nobody can describe. The explanation comes only in the last two chapters.

This edition, in English, adds notes on London places, professional titles, biblical and classical references and words that have changed, plus an editor’s introduction, a chronology and a note on the text listing the corrections made to the transcription.
