When estate agent solicitor's clerk Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to assist Count Dracula with the purchase of his London house, he discovers more about his client and his castle than he might wish.… Bram Stoker's classic novel Dracula, originally titled The Un-Dead, was first published in 1897. It has had a pro­found influence on world literature. It has enjoyed enormous popularity since its publication and is singu­larly responsible for spawning an extraordinary vampire subculture in the second half of the twentieth century. Over a thousand novels and hundreds of films feature Dracula or other vampires, not to mention the countless cartoons, comics, and tele­vision programmes which were ultimately inspired by Stoker's work. This edition includes the short story "Dracula's Guest", which was published in 1914 by Stoker's widow, Florence, who said of the story: "It was originally excised owing to the length of the book, and may prove of interest to the many readers of what is considered my husband's most remarkable work." Abraham "Bram" Stoker was born in Clontarf in Dublin on 8 November 1847 and died in London on 20 April 1912. He was an Irish novelist and short story writer, who worked as the personal assistant of actor Henry Irving and business manager of the Lyceum Theatre in London, which Irving owned. Mathew Staunton is printing historian from Dublin and proprietor of The Onslaught Press. He produced the illustrations for this edition on his press in Oxford.

Über den Autor / die Autorin

Bram Stoker (1847-1912) was an Irish author who was better known in his lifetime for his association with Sir Henry Irving, the most famous actor of his day. Born and raised in Dublin, Stoker graduated with honors in mathematics from Trinity College. He then joined his father in the Irish Civil Service at Dublin Castle, where he worked for the next eight years. During that time he became an unpaid drama critic for the Dublin Evening Mail and began his writing career. His first story, "The Crystal Cup," appeared in 1872; his first novel, The Primrose Path, was published in 1875. In 1876 he met Henry Irving after publishing a favorable review of Irving's Hamlet at the Theatre Royal in Dublin. In 1878 he became Irving's personal assistant and business manager of Irving's Lyceum Theatre-a post he maintained until Irving's death in 1905. In all, Stoker published some eighteen books before his death, Dracula being by far his most enduring work.
