ROMEO Y JULIETA

Robert Louis Stevenson was one of the giants of the adventure novel, but he was also one of the great connoisseurs of human mentality, which is why he would sooner or later write an everlasting classic like El extraño caso del doctor Jekyll y el señor Hyde.

Equal parts romance and gothic novel, this engrossing tale of unrequited love, musical genius, and physical deformity has been the basis for many a film, television, radio, and stage adaptation, including the immensely popular Broadway musical.
