À propos de cet e-book
Bram Stoker's seminal work, "Dracula," is a masterful blend of Gothic horror and Victorian sensibility, weaving a narrative rich in symbolism and psychological depth. The novel unfolds through the epistolary format, utilizing a collection of letters, diary entries, and newspaper clippings to build suspense and provide multiple perspectives on the haunting figure of Count Dracula. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century England, the story explores themes of sexuality, fear of the foreign, and the clash between modernity and superstition, positioning it within the context of an era grappling with rapid industrialization and societal change. Bram Stoker, an Irish author and theater manager, drew inspiration from folklore, his own experiences in the bustling urban life of London, and travels throughout Europe to construct this iconic vampire tale. His background in theater imbued his writing with a sense of dramatic flair, crafting characters that resonate with both terror and intrigue. Stoker'Äôs fascination with the macabre and the unknown is evident, as is his exploration of the implications of desire and moral transgression, enriching the narrative with layers of meaning. "Dracula" is recommended for its profound commentary on human nature and societal fears, making it not just a horror classic but a pivotal work for understanding Victorian anxieties. Readers seeking a thrilling experience that invites introspection into the darker sides of humanity will find Stoker'Äôs tale both captivating and thought-provoking, ensuring its place in literary canon.
