Summary:
"London, winter of 1884. Mr. Utterson, Dr. Jekyll's notary, rereads the scientist's testament: 'I, the signatory Henry Jekyll, wish that upon my death all my goods pass to my great friend and benefactor Edward Hyde.'
Soon after, Mr. Utterson discovers that Mr. Hyde is not only a despicable person, but a criminal.
What dark secret, what grave mistake of youth obliges the impeccable Dr. Jekyll to name a murderer his principal benefactor? "
This memorable novel by Robert Louis Stevenson is a moral allegory, a masterly tale of mystery that successive generations of readers have turned into a classic of universal literature.
The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a mixture of mystery, terror and science fiction, which was immortalized as the story of man and beast.
In a London shrouded in fog and cold, incredible events unfold that reveal the dark side of the human soul.
The core of the work lies in the duality of the human spirit, balancing between the principles of good and evil, and leading the protagonist to a double personality through the effects of a scientific potion.
In a story that intimately involves us, the moral of this story is that evil is inside us, it is a constituent of our being; We can defeat him but never eliminate him completely and we should not play with him or else we risk destroying him like Dr. Jekyll.

The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (in English Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde), sometimes simply titled Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde, is a short novel written by Robert Louis Stevenson and published for the first time in English in 1886, which is about a lawyer, Gabriel John Utterson, who investigates the strange relationship between his old friend, Dr. Henry Jekyll, and the misanthrope Edward Hyde.
The book is known to be a vivid representation of a psychiatric disorder that causes the same person to have two or more identities or personalities with opposite characteristics. In psychiatry, this refers to dissociative identity disorder (formerly known as multiple personality disorder). This psychopathology should not be confused with bipolar disorder, another completely different psychiatric condition, belonging to a group of mental illnesses known as mood disorders, in which phases of mania alternate with phases of depression. It was an immediate success and one of Stevenson's best sellers. The theatrical adaptations began in Boston and London a year after its publication and continues to inspire multiple films and performances today.
