SynopsisIn this disturbing tale, Stevenson weaves a story of a dual personality: the generous physician, Dr. Jekyll, and the demonic Mr. Hyde. This great psychological novel prefigures the modern detective story and probes the darkest side of human nature. Written before Freudian theory gained popularity, it is perceptive in its description of a personality's inner war., Dr Jekyll, a physician conscious of the duality in his nature, and fascinated by the idea of the advantage that would arise if these elements could be clothed in different personalities, discovers a drug by means of which he can create a separate personality that absorbs all his evil instincts.
