Dracula

Summary

This haunting, unabridged reading from the original 1897 text, recounts with mounting suspense the nocturnal travels of a suspicious count from Transylvania. When Dracula first appeared, the work quickly earned a reputation as one of the first psychological novels of its day, and was noted for its use of new literary devices. Stoker, the business manager for the great tragedian, Sir Henry Irving, enlisted all the latest paraphernalia of his age to tell his unusual story: the portable typewriter, shorthand, the telegraph, and most important, the phonograph.
