The Lost Journal of Bram Stoker: The Dublin Years - Rare Historical Collectible for Gothic Literature Fans & Book Collectors - Perfect for Halloween Decor, Vampire-Themed Parties & Literary Enthusiasts

Bram Stoker died 100 years ago, days after the Titanic sank. We know him as the author of Dracula, but long before Dracula, he was just a young Irishman, hoping to be a writer, practicing poetry, and enjoying a good joke. This Lost Journal (now found) is an amazing opportunity to get into the young mind of the Dracula author --to see who he was (law clerk) where he lived (Dublin, Ireland) what he thought about (everything from walking on the beach and unrequited love to drunken parties at Dublin Castle and sliding in vomit).Dr. Miller and Dacre Stoker make interesting comments about Bram's entries, and as they say, some of the short notes are like twittering. Imagine decoding somebody's twitter messages 141 years from now in the year 2153 -- some of Stoker's notes are just that impossible- even for editors Stoker & Miller who have studied Stoker for years. The most obscure references will provide a field day for Irish history buffs and English professors who want to challenge their students of Gothic literature.The editors say Bram Stoker never thought anybody would care about these notes so he wrote for himself, which is so revealing on many levels. If you are a Dracula fan, or just love history take a look at this.Never thought about Bram's brothers and sisters, now I have their pictures. Which are, as they say, worth another 1000 words.
