I've never seen the accent over the A like that.

If Victorian language doesn't bother you. Also: epilstilary and he repeats story points over and over from different characters points of view, so repetitive. Always go for the Norton Critical Edition, bro! It gives lots of footnotes for antiquated words and references.

I disagree, I didn't find it repetative at all. I found the form very engaging and well crafted, and each person's individual style and voice is very well done. seriously one of the best written works I've read.

If you've ever read a victorianish novel you'll have no trouble. The language isn't difficult and it's pretty fast-paced most of tbe way through. Had some really creepy parts. Just dive in.

Is it read Drake-ula?
Anyway Yeah I like Dracula all of the (what are now) tropes of the vampire genre are the big twists here.
It's worth your time though. The prose is good and the characters are really strong.

My English teacher had an edition that is made to look like the newspaper clippings and diary pages that the text is written as. It was super neat- but I also think it's like a 120USD. Not needed for just the story.

A pleasant, engaging and a quick read.
Dracula is the basis of many vampire stories, age and gender independent. It is accessible to them all, while also carrying the inspiration and enjoyment to make it last in the readers' minds.
I have read it many years ago, yet it still is something I have memories reading, and I keep being reminded of it in pop culture.

No need to buy a book like this. Any library version will do, as long as it's the novel, not a film version.

It's actually surprising how well it's written given how shitty a writer Bram Stoker actually was. Worth a read if you like atmospheric Victorianism and vampires.

How was Bram a bad writer if his story was well written?

>>7444853
prose retards hate any plot

>>7444853
It's his other works that are terribly written. Just try reading The Lair of the a White Worm.

>The Lair of the a White Worm

What?

>>7444684
give it a read op, it was one of the first books i read when i picked up reading...
go for english edition.
bram stoker was an athlete- and i read it back to back with king's salem's lot.
stoker is by far a better writer much more finesse

>>7444931
Stoker has written other books as well, not just dracula

>>7445917
he was questioning the "the a" part when he said what
its the lair of the white worm
not the lair of the a white worm

>>7445952
oh okay

Thanks for all the great responses guys, gonna pick in up in a couple of hours!

>>7444684
Yes, but my opinion is very biased because I love almost every gothic novel to see.

I suppose it's a spanish edition, the accent needed to fix the correct pronunciation.
