Stevenson originally wrote it as a ''chilling shocker.'' He then burned the draft and rewrote it as the darkly complex tale it is today. Stark, skillfully woven, this fascinating novel explores the curious turnings of human character through the strange case of Dr. Jekyll, a kindly scientist who by night takes on his stunted evil self, Mr. Hyde. Anticipating modern psychology, Jekyll and Hyde is a brilliantly original study of man's dual nature. Description in Spanish: Dos personalidades, a partir de un extrano experimento, conviven en una sola persona: el Dr. Jekyll y su antitesis, Mr. Hyde. Asi, en una de las obras de este autor que alcanzaron mayor repercusion, conviven la razon y el misterio, la ciencia y la ficcion. Incluye prologo de Marcelo Figueras.
