A review by jessica_sim
The Body-Snatcher by Robert Louis Stevenson

4.0

I seem to find myself on an unexpected excursion into the works of Robert Louis Stevenson. I was living under the presumption that I wouldn't care for his work, that's entirely incorrect as I am completely intrigued by the diversity in his stories. What does shine through (two books in...) is a focus on morals and ethical dilemmas.

This short story, which rings too true to the ears of a former medical student who can still vividly remember her time behind the anatomy tables, makes a big statement: nothing can rid a person of their unaccounted for sins. There is nothing for it but facing up to them.
