Dracula / Inscribed by Illustrator / First Thus / 2000
By Bram Stoker
Illustrator: Barry Moser
In 1897, Bram Stoker unleashed his masterpiece upon the world with Dracula. Inspired by the folk legend of Nosferatu, the undead, Stoker created a timeless tale of gothic horror and romance that has enthralled and terrified readers ever since.
This illustrated edition does full justice to the dark splendor of Stoker's novel of the Count, who feeds off the blood of the living. Stark and powerful relief engravings from renowned illustrator Barry Moser bring to life the story's most unforgettable moments and characters: the ship of death that brings Dracula to English shores as it pitches upon the sea; the final terrible siege at his Transylvanian lair, and the faces of clever, loving Mina Harker, mad, ravenous Renfield, wise Professor Van Helsing, and of course, Count Dracula himself.
Told in letters, diary entries, and news clippings, Dracula maintains an uncanny power over the reader, not only in the chilling charisma of its oft-imitated character but in the pace and fury of its storytelling. Stoker's novel has inspired countless movies and stories. But the original Dracula, like its hero, has the power to live forever.
Book Condition: Near Fine | Dust Jacket: Near Fine
The book has the publisher's gray-clothed covers with a red blood-splatter image on the front panel. The spine is black and with a gilt title. The text block is top-stained red, and the fore-edge and bottom are faintly foxed. However, the pages are clean and unmarked, with the exception of the inscription and the illustrator's signature on the title page. The binding is tight, and the book is in near-fine condition. I've added a new paper-backed Mylar cover for additional protection.
