A brilliant, feminist retelling of Robert Louis Stevenson's evergreen classic, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, in which a woman gives in to the murderous and sensual force that awakens within her as she battles breast cancer. Rosy Winter is dying. Her husband, Charlie--sweet but out of his depth--tries to be supportive. Her sister-in-law, Sally, is too distracted by her own problems to help. Her students, once a source of delight, are now a daily reminder of Rosy's mortality. So, Rosy succumbs to anguish, allowing a force--murderous, sensual, feverish--to awaken and stir within her. An embodiment of her rage, a twisted joie de vivre, ripping recompense from the world around her. A powerful feminist retelling of Robert Louis Stevenson's Gothic classic, Mrs. Jekyll is a brilliant, evocative, and lyrical story of one woman's refusal to yield her passion for life, even as her body betrays her.
