About this product

Product Information

Dracula is an 1897 Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker. Famous for introducing the character of the vampire Count Dracula, the novel tells the story of Dracula's attempt to move from Transylvania to England so he may find new blood and spread the undead curse, and the battle between Dracula and a small group of men and women led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing. Dracula has been assigned to many literary genres including vampire literature, horror fiction, the gothic novel and invasion literature. Although Stoker did not invent the vampire, he defined its modern form, and the novel has spawned numerous theatrical, film and television interpretations.About the authorBram Stoker (1847-1912) was born in Dublin. After attending Dublin University, he spent ten years as an Irish civil servant, trying to keep up his writing in his free time. By 1871, he had become the drama critic for the Dublin Mail and had gained experience as a newspaper editor, reporter, and short story writer. In 1878 he became the personal assistant to Sir Henry Irving, the foremost Shakespearean actor of his day, accompanying him on tours and managing Irving's theater. After Irving's death in 1905, Stoker worked on the literary staff of the London Telegraph. Dracula, his most famous work, was published in 1897. Analysis Bram Stoker's Dracula established many conventions of the subsequent vampire fantasy genre. This gothic fiction tells the tale of Count Dracula's transition from Transylvania to England and his attempt to spread the undead curse and of the battle between Dracula and Professor Abraham Van Helsing.Scholarly criticismC.F. Bentley reads Dracula as an embodiment of the Freudian id Carol A. Senf reads the novel as a response to the New Woman archetype, while Christopher Craft sees Dracula as embodying latent homosexuality and sees the text as an example of a 'characteristic, if hyperbolic instance of Victorian anxiety over the potential fluidity of gender roles'.Franco Moretti reads Dracula as a figure of monopoly capitalism, though Hollis Robbins suggests that Dracula's inability to participate in social conventions and to forge business partnerships undermines his power. Richard Noll reads Dracula within the context of 19th century alienism (psychiatry) and asylum medicine. D. Bruno Starrs understands the novel to be a pro-Catholic pamphlet promoting proselytization. Dracula is one of Five Books most recommended books with literary scholars, science writers and novelists citing it as an influential text for topics such as sex in Victorian Literature, best horror books and criminology.Historical and geographical references Dracula is a work of fiction, but it does contain some historical references although it is a matter of conjecture and debate as to how much historical connection was deliberate on Stoker's part. During his main reign (1456-1462), Vlad the Impaler is said to have killed from 40,000 to 100,000 European civilians (political rivals, criminals, and anyone that he considered useless to humanity ), mainly by impaling. REVIEW Those who cannot find their own reflection in Bram Stoker's still-living creation are surely the undead . New York Times Review of Books It is splendid. No book since Mrs. Shelley's Frankenstein or indeed any other at all has come near yours in originality, or terror. Bram Stoker's Mother

    Received the book in good condition. However it was sent in a freezer bag and a paper envelope. The envelope and bag were both torn and somehow the book was not damaged. Contacted the seller about the packaging and suggested maybe a padded envelope or a couple of pieces of stiff cardboard may offer better protection. Seller said they would pass information on to relevant staff. I doubt I will purchase from this seller again.

    Although my book never arrived (lost by Australia Post I’d imagine), I truly could not be more impressed with the service of this seller. I’d waited over three weeks before contacting them to advise them of the non-arrival to allow for ample postage time, and virtually immediately they issued a refund without my even having to ask. Five stars is definitely warranted. I would not hesitate to shop here again! Thank you so much for your promptness in reply and addressing the issue so superbly.

    The seller sent the order, though sadly, it never was delivered. This of course is a problem that occurs far too often in the transportation system. Messaging the seller and working out a result that was positive for us, was a stress free process. We want to highly recommend this seller as they are genuinely interested in the buyer’s best interests. They were quick to respond to our query. Ultimately, a refund was issued. Thank you again.
