Overview

The primary vampire novel in a special hardcover edition with silver foil embossing

The figure of Count Dracula is one of the most famous literary characters in the world. Ever since the vampire novel "Dracula" by Irish writer Bram Stoker was published in 1897, it has been hard to imagine literature and film without it. Cinema, in particular, quickly discovered vampires for itself in a visually stunning way - but this has not detracted from the genuine qualities of the literary original. To this day, Stoker's novel about the young lawyer Harker and the demonic undead Dracula is an eerily beautiful reading experience.

About the Author

About The Author
Abraham Stoker, geboren 1847 in Dublin, war bis zu seinem achten Lebensjahr durch eine Krankheit ans Bett gefesselt. Nach Abschluss seines Studiums begann er zunächst eine Beamtenlaufbahn, zog aber bald nach London, wo er 27 Jahre lang als Sekretär und Manager des Shakespeare-Darstellers Henry Irving tätig war. 1912 starb Stoker arm und unbekannt in London, genau zehn Jahre bevor sein Dracula durch Murnaus Film Nosferatu zum dunkelsten Held der Weltliteratur wurde. Heute kennt man Bram Stoker fast ausschließlich als den geistigen Vater von Dracula, obwohl er auch Kurzgeschichten, Theaterkritiken, Vorträge und 16 weitere Romane verfasste.
