First published in 1886 as a "shilling shocker," Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde takes the basic struggle between good and evil and adds to the mix bourgeois respectability, urban violence and class conflict. The result is a tale that has taken on the force of myth in the popular imagination. Stevenson’s best-known novel for adults stands with Dracula and Frankenstein as one of the horror stories that has come to define the modern mind. Martin Danahay's new edition sets this classic firmly in the context out of which it emerged. The many appendices include a range of contemporary reactions to the novel; a selection of Victorian views on criminality and degeneracy; descriptions of Soho and London's West End in the 1880s; and a portfolio of newspaper accounts of and reaction to the "Jack the Ripper" murders. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
