The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde - by Robert Louis Stevenson

Abridged and slightly simplified version of Robert Louis Stevenson's 1886 gothic novella "The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde", complete with reading comprehension exercises. More than a hundred words have been translated into Italian in the notes below the text. As a horrible crime shocks Victorian London, a question becomes increasingly pressing: who is the elusive and repugnant Edward Hyde? And what is his connection with Henry Jekyll, the well-known and respected scientist? In trying to connect the dots, Jekyll's lawyer and friend Mr Utterson takes the reader through foggy streets, moonlit yards and sinister alleys, gradually unravelling the mystery.
