      Si bien en buena parte de la obra de R. L. Stevenson dominan el humor, el gusto por la aventura y la fantasía, " El Dr. Jekyll y Mr. Hyde " evoca el lado oscuro de la condición humana, transmitiendo al lector la sensación de horror que suscita el descubrimiento de lo abominable dentro de la realidad cotidiana. La soberbia calidad literaria de este admirable relato, su perfección formal y la economía de medios de su argumento han hecho de él una obra perenne que admite varias lecturas que no se excluyen entre sí y que van desde la simple entrega al eficaz suspense de la trama, a su interpretación como una fábula sobre el hombre como escenario para la perpetua lucha entre el bien y el mal.
