They include The Body Snatchers, the chilling tale of an avenging ghost; Olalla, one of the great horror stories in the English language and possibly one of the best werewolf stories ever written, and The Waif Woman, in which Stevenson tried to recreate the style of an Icelandic Saga and explore the destructive effects of greed.

Born in Edinburgh in 1850, to strict Calvinist parents, Robert Louis Stevenson was a famous Scottish novelist, poet and travel writer. His ill health meant that he spent the latter part of his life voyaging the world, in an attempt to find a climate that suited his health, and this contributed to the exoticism of much of his work. He finally settled in Samoa, and died in 1899. Revered during his lifetime, and often harshly underrated since his death, Robert Louis Stevenson is today recognized as one of the the great writers of the nineteenth century, having influenced authors such as Graham Greene, Jorge Luis Borges and Vladimir Nabokov.
