Rezensionen

"Wynne's volume is a welcome addition to the considerable body of critical writing on the relationships between Stoker, Dracula, and the gothic, and is certainly essential reading for anyone keen to stay up to date in the field of Stoker studies. Indeed, the collection ought to be required reading for anybody interested in Bram, Dracula, or looking for an introduction to gothic studies more broadly." (Aoife Dempsey, The Irish Journal of Gothic and Horror Studies, Vol. 16, 2017)
