Mucho más que una novela gótica, Drácula es un ejercicio literario excepcional. Con un prefacio de Christopher Frayling e introducción de Maurice Hindle. Traducción de Mario Montalbán. No había nadie por allí, excepto un hombre alto y flaco, de nariz ganchuda y barba en punta y entrecana. Tenía una mirada dura y fría y unos ojos de color rojo... Jonathan Harker viaja a Transilvania para cerrar la venta de varias propiedades en Londres con un misterioso conde. Después de un viaje plagado de ominosas señales, Harker es recogido por un siniestro carruaje que lo llevará, acunado por el canto de los lobos, a un castillo en ruinas. Tal es el inquietante principio de una novela magistral que alumbró uno de los mitos más populares y poderosos de todos los tiempos: Drácula. La presente edición incluye una detallada cronología y el prefacio del reputado catedrático y crítico Christopher Frayling, donde se analiza la figura de Stoker y las circunstancias que propiciaron la creación de Drácula. Asimismo, la perspicaz introducción a cargo del especialista Maurice Hindle reflexiona sobre los aspectos más polémicos en torno al origen del prototipo vampírico.
