À propos de cet audio
Brought to you by Penguin.
This Penguin Classic is narrated by Mark Gatiss, who also wrote the screen play for the critically acclaimed BBC adaptation. Gatiss has also had an extensive acting career including roles in Sherlock, which he wrote alongside Steven Moffat, The League of Gentlemen and Wolf Hall.
When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes a series of horrific discoveries about his client. Soon afterwards, various bizarre incidents unfold in England: an apparently unmanned shipis wrecked off the coast of Whitby; a young woman discovers strange puncture marks on her neck; and the inmate of a lunatic asylum raves about the 'Master' and his imminent arrival. In Dracula, Bram Stoker created one of the great masterpieces of the horror genre, brilliantly evoking a nightmare world of vampires and vampire hunters and also illuminating the dark corners of Victorian sexuality and desire.

I liked the narrator, but he did not handle female voicing well, or at all really.
I must put a strike against the analysis that Penguin included. A load of rubbish! This is not highly sexualized book, and I do not like when people make things up to support their weird little thesis. Example: Dr. John Seward does not make love to Lucy; he proposes to her. He was so nervous, he frightened her with a lancet that he was waving around. The 'academic' doing the review implies that it was sex-play while they were getting their freak on! He also touches onto critical race theory, etc., etc.. Barf! Well, I guess you have to fill your lectures with something. Good thing that it is at the end of the book.
A humdinger of a gothic-horror story
