Mrs. Jekyll
by Emma Glass
📖: 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.

Confession time, I’ve never read Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde before. In fact, I’ve never read a lot of popular classics. 🤣 I’m trying to work on that but always fine myself so intimidated. 🥲
What’s your favorite classic to recommend?

MRS JEKYLL by Emma Glass is out in paperback today!
By turns tender and devastating, Mrs Jekyll contorts Stevenson’s gothic classic in a sumptuous and shocking account of modern womanhood.
Schoolteacher Rosy Winter is dying.
Her husband Charlie offers all the relief he can. Rosy’s sister-in-law, Sally, offers none.
But Rosy feels something growing in her. A hard knot in her chest.
Beyond the homeopathic remedies, the dinner party obligations, the snatched whispers on wards and in staffrooms, a force - murderous, feminine, feverish - is stirring within her...
