Bram Stoker: A Literary Life

by Lisa Hopkins

Book Overview

This book charts the major events of Stoker's life, which included friendships with many of the major figures of the age and a high public profile as manager of Henry Irving's Lyceum, and maps them onto the contours of his literary career. It offers sustained critical evaluation both of Dracula and also of Stoker's lesser-known works, which prove to yield much interest when reinserted into their original cultural contexts.
