The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886), written in three days and burnt, then written again in three more; and The Merry Men and Other Tales and Fables, the collection Stevenson published the following year — Markheim, the murderer in the antique shop; Thrawn Janet, in Scots, about a woman who may have been dead for some time; Olalla; Will o' the Mill; and the shipwreck story that gives the book its name. Ninety-seven plates by Whistler, Fuseli, Goya and others trace the moonlit streets and troubled conscience that haunt these tales.
