Are you struggling to understand Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novel Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? Or, are you an English teacher wanting readymade exercises and guidance to help you teach this difficult text? Do your students need support to understand the language properly and work independently on the book? This brilliant edition of Stevenson’s novel may be the answer to your prayers.

Nick is cracking up. In his mid-40s, he has just been sacked as an arts journalist, with little prospect of getting such a well-paid, prestigious job again. Even more worrying for him is his suspicion that his wife, a Deputy Head at a school, is having an affair with a much more successful person: Does she want to trade in Nick for a better model? His marriage problems are now exacerbated by money worries and concerns about the future for his nine-year old son, Jack. But most devastating of all is the fact that he learns that a former lover, Ellida, has died.
