Description

This quintessential vampire story helped to reshape the world of horror fiction.

Irish author Bram Stoker introduced the character of Count Dracula and provided much of the basis of modern vampire fiction in his 1897 novel Dracula. Written as a series of letters, newspaper clippings, diary entries, and ships’ logs, the story begins with lawyer Jonathan Harker journeying to meet Dracula at his remote castle to complete a real estate transaction. Harker soon discovers that he is being held prisoner, and that Dracula has a rather disquieting nocturnal life.

Touching on themes such as Victorian culture, immigration, and colonialism, among others, this timeless classic is sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats!

Featuring colourful sprayed edges and a heat-burnished cover with foil stamping, this edition of Dracula is a stylish addition to your bookshelf.
