Historical and geographical context
This novel is based on the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century . Written by Robert L . Stevenson and was first published in English of 1886, in these years it happened that Charles Hall discovers the system to obtain aluminum, Coca- Cola, Rafael Nuñez, promulgates a new Constitution etc.. This book is presented in a cold, dark and foggy environment in the city of London.
I had read other books very similar to this, but this seemed too interesting and intriguing since new tests are being triggered to get this mysterious character and find that identity that did not know her or her own family.
In my personal opinion it is a very good book that represents the duality of the human being (good and evil) and presents a plot of mystery very entertaining from beginning to end, where each event can be given to something much deeper.
