Show transcript
The duality of human nature - that all humans are capable of good and evil - is a central idea in the novella.
Arguably, Stevenson embraces his own duality but is critical of those whose dual nature leads to hypocritical decisions.
Arguably, Stevenson's choice of narrative structure is representative of duality.
The multiple narrators could reflect the fact there are always multiple ways of looking at situations.
