Tungkol sa ebook na ito
Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' is a classic Gothic horror novel that explores the themes of sexuality, power, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. Written in an epistolary format, the book is composed of diary entries, letters, and newspaper clippings, which add depth and realism to the story. The novel's rich language and atmospheric descriptions create a sense of dread and suspense, making it a quintessential work of Victorian literature. Stoker's fusion of superstition, science, and folklore in 'Dracula' reflects the anxieties of the time, making it a timeless piece of literature that continues to captivate readers today. Bram Stoker was heavily influenced by his interest in the occult and his fascination with the folklore of Eastern Europe. His experiences as the personal assistant of actor Henry Irving provided him with insights into the world of theater and performance, which he used to create the character of Count Dracula. Stoker's meticulous research and attention to detail shine through in 'Dracula,' establishing him as a master of Gothic fiction. I highly recommend 'Dracula' to readers who enjoy dark and atmospheric tales that delve into the depths of human nature. Stoker's masterful storytelling and chilling portrayal of the vampire legend make this novel a must-read for fans of horror and Gothic literature.

Bram Stoker, born Abraham Stoker on November 8, 1847, in Clontarf, Ireland, is often celebrated for his seminal contribution to the Gothic horror genre with his most famous work, 'Dracula' (1897). Stoker's upbringing was marked by a chronic illness that left him bedridden until the age of seven, but he eventually recovered and went on to excel academically and athletically at Trinity College, Dublin. After obtaining his degree, he worked as a civil servant at Dublin Castle and later as manager for the eminent actor Sir Henry Irving, while also establishing himself as a writer. 'Dracula,' his masterpiece, is an epistolary novel that weaves a haunting tale of the eponymous vampire Count Dracula and his fateful encounter with the solicitor Jonathan Harker and Professor Abraham Van Helsing. The book never garnered substantial success during Stoker's lifetime, but posthumously, it became a canonical text in horror literature and spawned innumerable adaptations in various media. Stoker's narrative style in 'Dracula', characterized by its suspenseful atmosphere and integration of contemporary anxieties about sexuality, colonialism, and scientific progress, has been analyzed for its depth and symbolic richness. Despite the overshadowing fame of 'Dracula', Stoker authored other notable works such as 'The Lair of the White Worm' and 'The Jewel of Seven Stars', contributing further to the supernatural and macabre literary landscape. He died on April 20, 1912, but his influence on the horror genre remains undiminished, earning him a distinguished place among literary figures in the annals of horror and supernatural fiction.
