The New Annotated Dracula

Author(s): Bram Stoker

Children's Books

Travelling through two hundred years of popular culture and myth as well as graveyards and the wilds of Transylvania, Leslie S. Klinger illuminates every aspect of Bram Stoker's haunting novel (including an examination of the original typescript with its shockingly different ending). He investigates the many subtexts - from the masochistic, necrophilic, homoerotic and 'dentophilic' implications of the story to its political, economic, feminist, psychological and historical threads. Employing his superb literary detective skills, Klinger mines this 1897 classic for nuggets that will surprise even the most die-hard Dracula fans.
