O autoru
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, and travel writer, celebrated for his masterful storytelling and enduring literary works. Born in the heart of Edinburgh to a family of engineers, he rejected the expected career path and instead pursued a life devoted to literature. Stevenson's poor health drove him to warmer climates, influencing the vivid settings in his tales. 'Olalla', a lesser-known but poignant novella, reflects Stevenson's fascination with the gothic and the complexity of human nature, themes recurrent in his more famous works such as 'Treasure Island' and 'Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde'. Stevenson's narrative style often weaves deep psychological insights with adventurous plots, marking him as a precursor to the modern psychological novel and a significant figure in the Scottish literary canon. His works transcend time, appealing both to the academic community for their depth and to the public for their excitement and adventure. Stevenson's contribution to literature endures, his novels standing as cornerstones within the adventure and horror genres.
