Book Synopsis
This study examines Stoker's contribution to the modern notion of Gothic and demonstrates that Gothic excess is Stoker's way of focusing on social, economic, and political problems. What makes this study unique is that it privileges Stoker's development of modern Gothic in Dracula but also addresses Stoker's works that are decidedly not Gothic.
