Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Description
Robert Louis Stevenson explores the very nature of man in this classic horror novel. "Why did you wake me? I was dreaming a fine bogey tale." This masterful portrait of man's duality, written before Freud's naming of the ego and the id, sprang from the darkest recesses of the author's unconscious-during a nightmare from which his wife awakened him, alerted by his screams. More than a century later, this tale of mild-mannered Dr. Jekyll and the drug that unleashes his evil inner persona has lost none of its ability to shock. Its realistic narrative chillingly relates Jekyll's desperation as Mr. Hyde gains control of his soul-and gives voice to our own fears of the violence lurking within us. Eerie and harrowing, this enduring classic remains the irresistibly terrifying stuff of our worst nightmares.
