Dracula by Bram Stoker
Book Description:
A true masterwork of storytelling, Dracula has transcended generation, language, and culture to become one of the most popular novels ever written. It is a quintessential tale of suspense and horror, boasting one of the most terrifying characters ever born in literature: Count Dracula, a tragic, night-dwelling specter who feeds upon the blood of the living, and whose diabolical passions prey upon the innocent, the helpless, and the beautiful. But Dracula also stands as a bleak allegorical saga of an eternally cursed being whose nocturnal atrocities reflect the dark underside of the supremely moralistic age in which it was originally written -- and the corrupt desires that continue to plague the modern human condition.
Dracula is a horror book and was Bram Stoker best book and has been made in to many films. This book is in letter, diary form and its from Johnathan Harker, Mina and the doctor point of view. It's called Dracula but you never hear from Dracula point of view. I study this book twice now and I would never of read it if was not for my degree. I found in parts I was lossing interest in the book but other times I got really in to it and then I would get fed up again.The way the book written in diary and letter form lost be abit because it kept switching to different characters and what was happening with them at that point. . The imagery and description is very good because you can see everything that going on inyour mind. My husband loved this book and loved the style of writing and could not put it down . Where I was not that interested as much but hd to read for my lecture.
I give this book 6 out of 10
Would love to hear your comments if you have read this book
