Dracula

What is it about?

Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to close a business deal with a mysterious count, unaware that this encounter will mark the beginning of something much darker. Through diaries, letters, and testimonies, the novel reconstructs Count Dracula’s arrival in England, where strange events begin to unfold: illnesses, unsettling behaviour, and a presence that seems to move in the shadows. It is not simply a story about vampires, but a novel about fear and desire, set against a dark and immersive atmosphere where danger is hinted at rather than openly revealed.

The Author and the Novel
