With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Tim Middleton, Head of English
Studies, University of Ripon and York. In seeking to discover his
inner self, the brilliant Dr Jekyll discovers a monster. First
published to critical acclaim in 1886, this mesmerising thriller is
a terrifying study of the duality of man's nature, and it is the
book which established Stevenson's reputation as a writer. Also
included in this volume is Stevenson's 1887 collection of short
stories, The Merry Men and Other Tales and Fables. The Merry Men is
a gripping Highland tale of shipwrecks and madness; Markheim, the
sinister study of the mind of a murderer; Thrawn Janet, a
spine-chilling tale of demonic possession; Olalla, a study of
degeneration and incipient vampirism in the Spanish mountains; Will
O' the Mill, a thought-provoking fable about a mountain inn-keeper;
and The Treasure of Franchard, a study of French bourgeois life.
