Book summary
Dr Jekyll, a respected scientist, develops an experiment that allows him to separate the two sides of his personality. Under the identity of Mr Hyde, he unleashes his darkest instincts without restraint. But this transformation becomes uncontrollable and threatens to destroy his identity. Through this double, the story explores human duality and the dangers of trying to exceed one’s own limits. The author delivers a striking work on morality, science, and the nature of evil.
