Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Book • 1886
The story, narrated largely through the perspective of Mr. Gabriel John Utterson, a London lawyer, revolves around the mysterious and sinister figure of Mr. Edward Hyde and his connection to the respectable Dr. Henry Jekyll.

As the narrative unfolds, it reveals Jekyll's secret: he has created a potion that allows him to transform into the evil Mr. Hyde, embodying his repressed desires and darker impulses.

The novella delves into themes of dual identity, the struggle between good and evil, and the social hypocrisy of Victorian society.
