"Bram Stoker’s 1897 Gothic novel, Dracula, features many of the most powerful tropes in fictional narrative: suspense,love, seduction, heroism, sacrifice, and the burning desire for some form of immortality. Deeply contrasting settings—East and West, London and Transylvania, the sophisticated city and the wild mountains, aristocratic mansions and dank vaults, a happy home and a lunatic asylum—present a binary world that finds its ultimate formulation in the eternal conflict between good and evil." ~ Grant Horner The Canon Classics Worldview Guides provide an aesthetic and thematic Christian perspective on the most definitive and daunting works of Western Literature.
