Estos catorce relatos que Kafka publicó en 1920 reúnen narraciones visionarias cuyos protagonistas—el médico que acude al lecho de un paciente una noche de tormenta, el artesano cuya ciudad ha sido invadida por una temible tribu nómada, el mensajero imperial que jamás llegará a su destino—son hijos de una época en que la vida ha quedado entregada a una lógica impenetrable y la comprensión del mundo resulta inconcebible.

Lady Susan Vernon, middle-aged and recently widowed, has retained her looks and appealing vivacity. She makes use of her bereavement and her loss of wealth by imposing herself on the hospitality of relatives, and by amusing herself in flirtation with the various men who fall under her spell. Lady Susan has a daughter, Frederica, who is bashful and innocent—in stark contrast to her unfeeling and manipulative mother. Her mother is anxious to marry Frederica off to a spouse of appropriate wealth and social standing, and also, perhaps, to capture a new mate for herself.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.
