First Sentence
"Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary and yet somehow lovable."
Work Description
Stevenson’s famous gothic novella, first published in 1886, and filmed countless times is better known simply as Jekyll and Hyde. The first novel to toy with the idea of a split personality, it features the respectable Dr. Jekyll transforming himself into the evil Mr Hyde in a failed attempt to learn more about the duality of man.
