Summary: "Few books have so seized the public imagination as Bram Stoker's Dracula, more popular now than when it was first published. This work represents a rereading of the horror classic as a Christian text, one that alchemizes Platonism, Gnosticism, Mariology and Christian resurrection in a tale that explores the grotesque. A strong addition to vampire and horror scholarship"--Provided by publisher.
