This year sees the launch of the Pocket Classics, a series of short works for pleasurable reading in a pocket-sized format. These books offer an intriguing and original mixture of new and varied reading experiences from a wide range of Scottish writing from different genres and all periods. Think of them as a reintroduction to the impact of the finest writing, whether non-fiction, poetry, short stories or novellas. Born of a nightmare and 'produced in white-hot haste', Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde has had a cultural impact out of all proportion to its size. A psychological study of endless richness, or a pocket-sized shilling shocker for the Christmas market, here is Stevenson's most famous work in small format once again, to be read or re-read with amazement, terror and delight. A limited edition print of the artwork to this book, created by David Mach and entitled 'Striking Likeness', is also available from canongate.net.
