Calm and content one moment, a ball of rage the next – hasn’t everyone felt this way at one time or another? The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson is a tale of conflicting emotions run amock. It’s a story of how anger can boil under the surface of any otherwise seemingly reasonable man.
Not only that, but it is totally the precursor to The Incredible Hulk.

“With every day, and from both sides of my intelligence, the moral and the intellectual, I thus drew steadily nearer to the truth, by whose partial discovery I have been doomed to such a dreadful shipwreck: that man is not truly one, but truly two.” – Robert Louis Stevenson, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
