    Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde & The Yellow Wallpaper: With Commentary by Alison Larkin

    Written by Robert Louis Stevenson and Charlotte Perkins Gilman

    Narrated by Derek Perkins and Alison Larkin

    ()

    About this audiobook

    The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde grew out of a horrifying nightmare Robert Louis Stevenson had one night in Bournemouth, England in 1886. "The Yellow Wallpaper" sprang from a catastrophic nervous breakdown Charlotte Perkins Gilman had six years later on the other side of the Atlantic following the birth of her daughter.

    Now these two haunting, iconic tales are brought together for the first time in this powerful classic audio exploration of madness and the duality of the human soul. Read by A-list narrators Derek Perkins and Alison Larkin, this rich audio experience also includes commentary by Alison Larkin and "Why I Wrote the Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

    Author

    Robert Louis Stevenson

    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) was a Scottish novelist, travel writer, poet, and children’s author. Plagued by poor health his entire life, he was nevertheless an amazingly prolific writer, and created some of the most influential and entertaining fiction of the nineteenth century, including Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
