Literature at Lunchtime Logo

Dr Jane Mackay gives one of her popular lunchtimelectures on great works of literature. Jane sheds new light on the lives and intentions of the great writers of the world, with an obvious love of her subject, penetrating insight, wit, warmth and humanity.

More known for his wonderfully humourous plays, this short novel is unique in Wilde's work. In it he explores the huge questions of human duality...that we contain within us the capacity for both the best and the worst. It is a study in the inescapable nature of the consequences of human action. Come and enjoy a novel which has many similarities in theme to Stevenson's 'Dr Jekyll'.
