Robert Louis Stevenson’s
The Strange Case Of Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde was inspired by a fever dream. What if it wasn’t? What if, instead, the author was inspired by an encounter with a real man? That’s the starting point of Hyde, a novel that mixes fact and fiction with the thrashing elegance of a nightmare. It follows Edward Hyde, a policeman in Victorianera Edinburgh tasked with solving an occult murder, while struggling with strange blackouts and insecurities about his appearance.
