About this listen

The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde was first published in 1866 and has gone on to become one of the most told Gothic stories of all time.

In this new recording, Paapa Essiedu breathes new life into the classic tale.

Robert Louis Stevenson's dark psychological fantasy follows a respectable London lawyer as he investigates the strange relationship between his old friend Dr Henry Jekyll and the evil Edward Hyde.

Its sensitive portrayal of man's dual nature is moving, beautiful and terrifying in equal measure.

Wonderful Classic Story

What a performance I loved the ideas this book brought up and how well it focussed the themes of what it means to be good and what it means to be wicked. The search for self is in this book and it’s teaching. Great ending and very well written mystery.
