pickDracula is one of my favorite classics. I recently watched Herzog's Nosferatu the Vampyre & found myself afterwards with several questions. Which reminded me of this Sutherland book. In it, Sutherland looks at the narrative threads & other puzzles of Dracula in brief yet informed chapters. With topics like, "Who washes Dracula's pinafore" & "Where have all the vampires gone" this is an amusing, & engaging, read.
I'd almost forgotten how much fun Sutherland is. I don't know of any other living literary critic who would write a piece titled, "Quincey P. Morris: Vampire?" combining literary scholarship and terminology from The Wire.
pickJohn Sutherland, author of Is Heathcliffe a Murderer? and Can Jane Eyre be Happy? Delighted to find I can read some of his books on Scribd. Here he looks into Dracula with his customary wit and accessibility, taking in a variety of pop culture references. My favourite course on my degree was Demons, Degenerates and New Women, so Dracula holds a special place, and my son's name is Bram after the author.
