具体描述

A true masterwork of storytelling, Dracula has transcended generation, language, and culture to become one of the most popular novels ever written. It is a quintessential tale of suspense and horror, boasting one of the most terrifying characters ever born in literature: Count Dracula, a tragic, night-dwelling specter who feeds upon the blood of the living, and whose diabolical passions prey upon the innocent, the helpless, and the beautiful. But Dracula also stands as a bleak allegorical saga of an eternally cursed being whose nocturnal atrocities reflect the dark underside of the supremely moralistic age in which it was originally written -- and the corrupt desires that continue to plague the modern human condition.

Pocket Books Enriched Classics present the great works of world literature enhanced for the contemporary reader. This edition of Dracula was prepared by Joseph Valente, Professor of English at the University of Illinois and the author of Dracula's Crypt: Bram Stoker, Irishness, and the Question of Blood, who provides insight into the racial connotations of this enduring masterpiece.

那个年代还是很单纯的：吸血鬼仍然是邪恶的象征；他们和人类还是敌对关系；他们还惧怕十字架、大蒜和阳光；他们仍然数量稀少。后来，为了提升人们的感官刺激，并突破一直以来人类对于吸血鬼的认识，越来越多的编辑就开始不走寻常路了：吸血鬼可以在阳光下自由来去了；他们必定...  

In Victorian age, women are forced to play the role of a good mother, a submissive wife, a lovely sister, while men could do pretty much everything. In the end of 19th century, however, women start to realize gender inequality and fight for it. We h...  

读这本书花了两个星期的时间，所以每天花在书上的时间是不多的，但这丝毫没有影响到我对这个故事的喜爱。 其实最早是看的电影。当时人还小，什么都不懂，口味也没现在那么重，所以看完电影只觉得有点肠胃不适的感觉，没觉得到底好在哪里。 上了大学看了中文版的原著。如果没...
