Mr. Utterson, the lawyer, is perplexed and disturbed. His close friend of many years, the well-respected Dr. Henry Jekyll, has fallen into the company of one Edward Hyde–a man who, by all accounts, is cruel, unfeeling, and seemingly pure evil. Fearing for his friend’s life, Utterson tries to persuade Jekyll to rid himself ofhisnew companion. Although Jekyll swears he can and will, Utterson continues to hear reports of the doctor’s closeness to Hyde. When Hyde murders a member of Pauliament, Utterson decides the situation is critical. Jekyll’s relationship with Hyde must be severed. Utterson, however, does not realize the full exten of that relationship, and the desperate lengths to which Jekyll must go to stop Hyde. It is only after the doctor disappears that the truth of his experiments–and the dangers of a man trying to release and control his own dark nature–are revealed. Alternately described as mystery, science fiction, fantasy, horror, and social critique, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde remains as relevant an examination of the human nature as when it was first published over a century ago.
