- : Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde: Illusrated English classics (No:8912)
- :
- :
- : Will anybody find out the horrible secret of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde?Bold visionary Henry Jekyll believes he can use his scientific knowledge to divide a person into two beings: one of pure good and one of pure evil. Working tirelessly in his secret laboratory, concocting a potion that would tear at the core of what makes a man human, he eventually succeeds—but only halfway. The book follows a realistic, police-style narrative which chillingly relates Jekyll’s desperation as Hyde gains control of his soul—and gives voice to our own fear of the violence and evil within us. Stevenson’s enduring classic demonstrates a remarkable understanding of the personality’s inner conflicts—and remains the irresistibly terrifying stuff of our worst nightmares.
