El Extraño Caso del Dr, Jekyll Y El Sr. Hyde / Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and MR Hyde - (Clásicos Juveniles) by Robert Louis Stevenson (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

"If I be the greatest of sinners, I shall also be the greatest sufferer." Gabriel John Utterson is a London lawyer investigating a series of strange events between his old friend, Dr. Henry Jekyll, and Edward Hyde, a crude and violent man to whom the doctor has bequeathed his fortune. When Hyde is accused of murder, Dr. Jekyll's friends decide to act: they must rescue the good doctor from the clutches of this malevolent being before it is too late. Published in 1886, this novel instantly became a classic whose hallucinatory setting through the backstreets of London gripped a nation mesmerized by crime and violence, and whose revelatory ending remains one of the most original and thrilling in the history of literature.
