Dracula
Simplified Chinese edition of Dracula by Bram Stoker. In Simplified Chinese. Annotation copyright Tsai Fong Books, Inc. Distributed by Tsai Fong Books, Inc.
In this classic novel about vampires Bram Stoker captured the fears of his age. Dracula represents everything everything the Victorians feared: the irrational, the pagan, the erotic and the foreign.With an Afterword by Jonty Claypole.
The novel's structure unfolds as Harker's diary entries, detailing his terrifying experiences in the castle, reveal the truth about his host's vampiric nature.
Although Stoker did not invent the vampire, the novel's influence on the popularity of vampires has been singularly responsible for many theater, film, television and many interpretations over the XX and XXI centuries.
A gripping gothic tale from the majestic Bram Stoker, which led to the birth of a legend and stoked the fertile imagination of film-makers, artists and novelists.
