Show Notes

Today we are talking about The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. Published in 1886, this Gothic novella gives a physical manifestation to the duality of man and explores how we process good and evil. 3,000 copies were initially printed and stores did not stock the books until a review appeared in The Times on 25 January 1886 giving it a favorable reception. Within the next six months, close to 40 thousand copies were sold.
