Synopsis "Dracula (Part One): Classic in Large Print"

Do you love reading and re-reading the most popular stories ever written? But are they hard to read because of your being visually impaired or fading eyesight? You're not alone. Millions of readers still prefer the joy and comfort of holding a real book in their hands and slowly turning the pages. If that is you, then here's some good news. Welcome to your discovery of "Classics in Large Print." This new series, making use of the latest in printing methods for seniors and visually impaired readers, is making available many of the greatest books ever written. DRACULA (in two volumes) During a visit to a castle in Transylvania, a young lawyer becomes horrified. Jonathan Harker is attacked by three ghoulish women. Then he sees the Count change from ha man to a bat form. He finds two wounds on his neck that appear to be a bite. Harker escapes and returns home but a friend's strange behavior -- sleepwalking, blood loss, mysterious throat wounds -- begins a desperate but determined hunt for the vampire. Bram Stoker's 1897 horror romance is as deathless as any vampire. It has inspired many movies, stage adaptations, and endless fan fiction. One hundred and twenty years after its publication, it still tingles the spine and makes hair rise on end. Buy both volumes now, and enjoy them.

Abraham "Bram" Stoker (Clontarf; 8 de noviembre de 1847-Londres; 20 de abril de 1912) fue un novelista y escritor irlandés, conocido por su novela Drácula.

Sus primeros relatos de terror, como "La Copa de Cristal" (1872), fueron publicados por la London Society, y The Chain of Destiny en la revista Shamrock. En 1876, mientras trabajaba como funcionario, escribió un libro de texto nombrado The Duties of Clerks of Petty Sessions in Ireland (1879), este libro se utilizó como referencia durante mucho tiempo.

Siendo crítico del teatro para el Dublin Evening Mail, cuyo copropietario era el célebre escritor de novela gótica Sheridan Le Fanu, uno de los más importantes de su época por relatos como el de Carmilla, sobre una vampiresa, influyeron mucho a Stoker a la hora de escribir Drácula. La crítica de Stoker hacia la obra fue una gran alabanza a la actuación en Hamlet del actor Henry Irving, quien le contrató para ser su secretario particular y gerente del Lyceum Theatre de Londres.

Mientras trabajaba para Irving, fue crítico literario para el Daily Telegraph y escribió varias novelas como The Snake's Pass (1890) y Dracula (1897) y, tras la muerte de Irving en 1905, La dama del sudario (1909) y La guarida del gusano blanco (1911).

Su esposa fue la administradora de su legado literario, y dio a conocer obras como la que sería la introducción de Drácula, el relato corto El invitado de Drácula.
