[EDNOTE. Here is Carolyn's response to Alexey's recent post. After this message, however, I suggest that we take a break from the back-and-forth over Jekyll & Hyde for the time being, and that interested parties continue the conversation offlist. SES]

Sehr geehrte und viel-gelehrte Lerche,

If you read Nabokov's lecture on Jekyll & Hyde, you may find the reference here is to the death of Robert Louis Stevenson, which I somehow imagine occurred with a corkscrew in the author's hand. Probably the ubiquitous cigarette as well.
