Dracula: Annotated for the 125th Anniversary

"An absolute must for Dracula, Horror, and Literary History aficionados the world over." In association with the Bram Stoker estate - The Official annotated, edited version of Dracula. In the author's full, original form, Dracula: Annotated is the very first edition of Bram Stoker's timeless classic horror novel to be written by a member of Bram Stoker's family, Dacre Stoker, his great grand nephew, with the assistance of award-winning vampire expert, Robert Eighteen-Bisang. This book includes the entire version of Dracula-not only Constable's text of 1897 and Dracula's Guest, but outlines of Bram's original first, second, and third chapters. Within these pages are all of the pre-publication deletions from the original typescript, as well as Bram's hand-written changes and the entire abridged edition of 1901-read for the first time the changes Bram made to create his dramatic adaptation of Dracula in 1897 and note the differences in the Doubleday & McClure and William Rider texts. This exceptional, incredibly unique slice of literary history represents a rare insight into the remarkable creative process of Bram Stoker, the grand master of horror himself.
