Summary
In a fog-wreathed London, the respected Dr Jekyll’s experiments on the dual nature of man unleash a brute that feels no moral restraint or remorse. Although excited by this freedom, Jekyll discovers that he is unable to control the power of his vicious alter ego and is faced with shameful discovery or ignominious death.
Haunting and thrilling, this atmospheric fable is one of the world’s greatest short stories. It is twinned here with Markheim, an earlier tale of second selves, conscience and the struggle between good and evil.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Surprisingly good!
Nothing like anything I have read before. A classic, and so much better than any modern media representation you may have seen, be it film or stage because the subject matter is complex and requires a writer of Stevenson's calibre to bring this story to life and make it believable. Highly enjoyable. The narrator does this novella full justice. Markheim is also excellent, and is somewhat reminiscent of Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment.
