Gabriel Utterson firsts hears about Mr. Hyde while on an evening walk with a friend. A sinister-looking man, Mr. Hyde is said to have violently trampled a young girl on the street for no reason. Not prone to gossip, Utterson leaves the matter be. But when he discovers that his good friend and client, Dr. Jekyll, paid off the girl’s parents on Mr. Hyde’s behalf, his inner alarm bells go off. What, exactly, is the connection between two such opposite people? Initially sold as a cheap and superficial read, Robert Louis Stevenson’s novella, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde (1886), didn’t receive its rightful praise until a review is The Times made the sales skyrocket. Soon, a popular stage production in London was forced to shut down because the audience found the play so believable, they suspected the actors and creator of being linked to the murders by the notorious, unidentified serial killer, Jack the Ripper. Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was a Scottish writer of novels, poems, essays, and travel books. Due to poor health, he spent much of his time abroad, where he became part of important literary circles. Though his writing has often been considered entertainment, author Henry James aligned Stevenson’s works to his own. His most famous novels are Treasure Island (1883) and the Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886).

«El tema es infinitamente interesante, y pródigo en todo género de provocaciones, y el señor Stevenson ha de congratularse por haber dado en el blanco.» Henry James «Y es que ciertamente parece que una personificación de Hyde aceptablemente realista anda suelta por Whitechapel», decía la Pall Mall Gazette el 8 de septiembre de 1888 en referencia al segundo asesinato de Jack el Destripador. La novela de Stevenson El extraño caso del doctor Jekyll y el señor Hyde se había publicado dos años antes, en 1886, y se prestaba ya a esta clase de comparaciones. Había entrado de lleno en el imaginario popular y aún hoy, en el siglo XXI, no somos inmunes a su efecto. El caso «esclavizaba» ya la «imaginación» del abogado Utterson, a quien le fue dada la horrible experiencia de ser testigo de la historia; podemos decir que también esclaviza la de sus lectores. Construido como una investigación detectivesca, con una forma narrativa diáfana y perfecta, este «relato alegórico que finge ser policial», según diría Borges, es sin duda una de las piezas maestras de su autor. Esta edición presenta el texto en una nueva traducción de Catalina Martínez Muñoz, con las ilustraciones de Mervyn Peake para la edición de The Folio Society de 1948. Incluye asimismo un memorable artículo de Stevenson sobre la inspiración de la obra y un revelador apéndice de Robert Mighall que la sitúa en el contexto científico, psiquiátrico y criminológico de la época.

Stevenson's famous exploration of humanity's basest capacity for evil Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde have become synonymous with the idea of a split personality. More than a morality tale, this dark psychological fantasy is also a product of its time, drawing on contemporary theories of class, evolution, criminality, and secret lives. Also in this volume are "The Body Snatcher," which charts the murky underside of Victorian medical practice, and "Olalla," a tale of vampirism and "the beast within," with a beautiful woman at its center. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

From the acclaimed author of the bestselling Italian Fever and award-winning Property, comes a fresh twist on the classic Jekyll and Hyde story, a novel told from the perspective of Dr. Jekyll's dutiful and intelligent housemaid. "Part psychological novel, part social history, part eerie horror tale ... dark and moving and powerful." —The Washington Post Faithfully weaving in details from Robert Louis Stevenson's classic, Martin introduces an original and captivating character: Mary is a survivor—scarred but still strong—familiar with evil, yet brimming with devotion and love. As a bond grows between Mary and her tortured employer, she is sent on errands to unsavory districts of London and entrusted with secrets she would rather not know. Unable to confront her hideous suspicions about Dr. Jekyll, Mary ultimately proves the lengths to which she'll go to protect him. Through her astute reflections, we hear the rest of the classic Jekyll and Hyde story, and this familiar tale is made more terrifying than we remember it, more complex than we imagined possible.
