Publisher's Note
Introduction by Nicholas Rance

The doppelganger, the ghostly double infecting the soul, was popular fictional subject for late nineteenth-century writers, and it found its most brilliant realization in Robert Louis Stevenson's story of Dr Jekyll, whose reckless genius allows him to bring his own appalling double to life.

Industry Reviews
"['Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde'] is not only a good 'bogey story'...it belongs to the same order of art as 'Madame Bovary' or 'Dead Souls'."
Vladimir Nabokov
