Robert Louis Stevenson (13 November 1850 – 3 December 1894) was a Scottish novelist, essayist, poet and travel writer.

Written as the epitaph Stevenson wished to have on his grave, the poem approaches death without fear or despair. Instead, Stevenson looks back on a life willingly lived and imagines death as a return home—a sailor coming in from the sea, a hunter returning from the hills.

A respectable London doctor. A creature he cannot control. A secret that will destroy them both. Robert Louis Stevenson's 1886 gothic classic follows the lawyer Gabriel Utterson as he investigates the sinister connection between his old friend Dr Henry Jekyll and the brutal, unaccountable Edward Hyde—a man capable of violence with no apparent limit, and no apparent past. As the trail of blackmail, murder, and vanished evidence closes in, Utterson uncovers a truth stranger and darker than he ever suspected: that Jekyll and Hyde are, and have always been, the same man.

Journey to the Scottish Highlands for the further adventures of David Balfour as he grows from boy to man. Stevenson's approach to the material adjusts appropriately, becoming a hybrid adventure novel and a novel of manners.

Alan Breck Stewart aids in more ways than one, as David's tumultuous journey comes to its riveting and satisfying conclusion.

This story deals with the obvious fact that we humans are split, dual. We have urges to do the 'right' thing, to be honorable and wise, but we also frequently fail to follow these better instincts and follow instead urges to do dishonorable, evil things. We seem to battle within ourselves. Are we really composed of two different personalities housed within the same brain, within the same person? Dr Jekyll in this story is so convinced and manages by scientific means to actually split himself into his ordinary composite self, and his evil self whom he calls Mr. Hyde. The horror of this ...
