Overview
"Weir of Hermiston is Stevenson's last novel and his masterpiece. In it he takes up his continuing preoccupation with human duality and the drama of filial disobedience. He portrays the rivalry between Lord Hermiston, a sardonic and formidable Edinburgh 'hanging judge', and his son Archie, who is banished to the Hermiston country estate and the company of women. Stevenson was at work on the novel on the day of his death in 1894, and the story is arrested in mid-flow during a lovers' quarrel."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
