Drácula

The novel "Dracula" by the Irish writer Bram Stoker (1847 - 1912), published in 1897, is undoubtedly one of the most famous and least read books of all time until cinema took hold of it as the famous Count did with his victims. "Dracula" is not, however, the first work about vampires, but it is by far the best known. Every time Count Dracula leaves his crypt in Victorian England at midnight, the ghosts of repressed sexuality also rise from their graves, because deep down it symbolizes the eternal struggle between good and evil, between light and darkness, transforming maidens into seductive libertines and making wives practice excessive sexuality. Myth, legend, fear, eroticism, taboos and transgressions are mixed in a story as exciting as the adventures of the Count himself.
