The Norton Library

The Norton Library edition of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde features the text of the first (1886) British edition, faithfully edited by Caroline Levine. A thorough introduction discusses the contexts and structure of Stevenson's thrilling horror, highlighting the literary achievements of "a fable that lies nearer to poetry than to ordinary prose fiction" (Vladimir Nabokov). Other selections include two short stories in which Stevenson first experimented with the themes and techniques that are fully realized in Jekyll & Hyde.
