O ovoj e-knjizi
This classic of English literature tells the story of Count Dracula's attempt to move from Transylvania to England so that he may find new blood and spread the undead curse, and of the battle between Dracula and a small group of men and women led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing. The tale begins with Jonathan Harker, a newly qualified English solicitor, visiting Count Dracula in the Carpathian Mountains on the border of Transylvania, to provide legal support for a real estate transaction. At first enticed by Dracula's gracious manners, Harker soon realizes that he is a prisoner in Dracula's castle. After the preparations are made, Dracula leaves Transylvania for England and abandons Harker to three female vampires, called the sisters. Harker barely escapes from the castle with his life, and after returning to England, he and his fiancée Mina join the campaign against Dracula.
O autoru
Bram Stoker, born Abraham Stoker on November 8, 1847, in Dublin, Ireland, is best known as the author of the quintessential gothic novel 'Dracula' (1897), which has immortalized his name in the annals of horror and vampire literature. Educated at the University of Dublin, Stoker graduated with honors in mathematics. He pursued a career in the civil service while developing a secondary career as a writer of sensational fiction, which culminated in the creation of his masterpiece. 'Dracula' is acclaimed not just for its spine-chilling tale but also for its intricate narrative structure, employing epistolary techniques that give a sense of immediacy and realism to the supernatural events described. The novel has spawned countless adaptations in film, theatre, and television, and has cast a lasting influence on the horror genre, shaping the public's perception of vampires. Stoker's writing, while prolific, never achieved financial success during his lifetime, but his posthumous fame solidifies him as a key figure in Victorian literature, with 'Dracula' often being hailed as one of the greatest horror novels ever written. Stoker died on April 20, 1912, but his legacy endures, with 'Dracula' continuing to enthral audiences and inspire writers within the gothic and horror traditions.
