Very interesting, especially if you want to know more about the writer and person Bram Stoker and about his life apart from Dracula. In his journal he writes a lot of witty stories about irish people of his time, althoug for me (my mother-language is german)the old irish-english words sometimes were quite difficult to guess, and certainly not to be found in any dictionaire. But I have enjoyed this book! ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Recently a long-lost notebook belonging to Dracula author, Bram Stoker, was discovered in the attic of one of his great grandsons. Published to coincide with the Centenary of Stoker's death the text of this notebook, written between 1871 and 1881 mostly in his native Dublin, will captivate scholars of Gothic literature and Dracula fans alike. Painstakingly transcribed and researched, the entries offer intriguing new insights into the complex nature of the man who wrote Dracula more than one hundred years ago. Assisted by a team of Dracula scholars and Stoker historians, the authors connect the dots between contents of the Notebook and Bram Stoker's later work, most significantly Dracula. Until now, discussion of the very private Bram Stoker has by necessity been largely speculative. Other than names and dates provided by biographers, and Bram Stoker's own sparse self-revelation in his non-fiction work, little has been available to support character studies of this fascinating Victorian gentleman. This personal Notebook shows Stoker's private thoughts and his developing style that foreshadows the journalistic technique of Dracula. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
