  3. LQ: How do we tackle the wider novel question? Candidates may draw on any relevant part of the novel outside the extract provided that the focus is on the significance of mystery and that statements made are supported with a quotation or reference from the text (A01) and reference is made to the writer’s craft: Stevenson’s presentation of this theme (A02).

  4. LQ: How do we tackle the wider novel question? Choose a relevant section (perhaps a CHAPTER) from the novel. Find around 4 to 5 quotes that create a sense of mystery . . . For each quote you find, write a PEE paragraph: P – WHAT is mysterious? E – What LANGUAGE suggests or creates this mystery? E - HOW and WHY is this language so mysterious? How does it make the reader _________ or _________ at this point in the novel?

  5. LQ: How do we tackle the wider novel question? each mystery is structured deliberately by Stevenson, revealing information at a pace in order to maximise the mystery. In Story of the Door there is a mystery behind a ‘sinister’ building with a ‘sordid negligence’. The reader learns of a ‘hellish’ incident when a ‘thing’ trampled ‘calmly’ on a child’s body. The cheque provided by Hyde with Jekyll’s signature proves to be the first great mystery in this story. The mystery created by Stevenson intrigues the reader and ensures that the reader’s attention is held: they must read on to find out the answer mystery is present in Search for Mr Hyde because of the overall sense of unease and mystery, before Utterson comes face to face with Hyde who has previously been described by Enfield as having ‘something wrong with his appearance, something displeasing, something detestable’ in The Carew Murder Case the reader is horrified to learn through Uttersonthat the cane used to club the MP belonged to Jekyll, a gift from Utterson himself. This mystery, like all the others is only resolved at the very end of the story in Incident of the Letter, an atmosphere of secrecy and mystery is created through Utterson’s discovery that Hyde’s handwriting was also Jekyll’s. It is only at the end of the story that the reader and Utterson learn the truth: Jekyll and Hyde are the same person. The mystery is solved when Jekyll dies and Utterson reads Lanyon’s letter and Jekyll’s full statement.
