SOBRE O AUTOR

Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson nasceu em Edimburgo a 13 de novembro de 1850. Cursou Direito - sem que alguma vez tenha chegado a advogar - e, pouco depois, apaixona-se por Fanny Osbourne com quem, apesar das diversas atribulações por que passaram, se viria casar. Anos mais tarde contrai tuberculose e muda-se com a mulher e o enteado para a Suíça, onde vive durante um ano. Regressa à Escócia mas o clima só prejudica ainda mais a sua saúde, obrigando-o a mudar-se novamente, desta vez para o Sul de França. Os anos seguintes foram passados à procura de um clima que não agravasse a sua doença, até que finalmente, em 1892, se fixou com a família em Samoa. Foi aí que morreu no dia 3 de dezembro de 1894, vítima de uma hemorragia cerebral. Foi autor, entre outros, de O Estranho Caso do Dr. Jekyll e do Sr. Hyde, e de A Ilha do Tesouro, que o imortalizaram.
