A review by murburt
Dracula by Bram Stoker

dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

5.0

Dracula is a book about anxieties and it turns out, the anxieties haven’t changed much from Victorian England to now. Read to reflect on questions like: What constitutes a monster? What constitutes a hero? How did vampires turn from evil creatures of the night to the sexy immortals of today?

5/5 for being more modern and relevant than I would have guessed.
