Wrong Box
and other works, and the use of both Scottish and South Seas islands in his fiction. The second section contains three essays that examine the many-faceted
Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde . Other works -
An Inland Voyage ,
A Child’s Garden of Verses ,
The Dynamiter ,
The Master of Ballantrae , and
Prayers Written at Vailima
- are the subjects of the six essays in the third section. Three essays on biography, popular culture and personal response are in the fourth section.
