Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. STOKER, Florence A[nee Balcombe], widow of Bram Stoker. (1858-1937) Autograph letter signed to Douglas Sladen. [December 1915]. Single sheet, 2 pp., on headed paper '6, William Street, Knightsbridge, S.W.1.'; stain from old adhesion on the reverse covering much of the page, but ful…ly legible; overall about very good. A cordial letter from Florence Stoker declining Sladen's invitation to dinner on account of the winter cold, writing that 'facing a train journey is beyond my courage.' Stoker adds a personal note regarding Sladen's wife: 'I am charmed with your wife, as you say, it is strange that I should come to know her through a third party! Give her my love.' Florence Stoker, widow of the author of Dracula, was at this period the principal guardian of her husband's literary estate, playing a decisive role in its posthumous management and reputation. Letters by her are uncommon in the market. Signed by Author(s).

Aggiungi al carrelloHard Cover. Condizione: Good. No Jacket. First American edition (Bleiler 1551) in new facsimile jacket. Boards soiled, spine toned, hinges weakening, corners slightly exposed, ink rental library stamp on front endpaper, a few light spots to margins. 1937 Hard Cover. 284 pp. Light olive cloth, black titles with bats on front boar…d. Stoker's works are the literary cornerstore of our cultural understanding of the mythology of vampires. The status of Dracula's Guest is a source of disagreement among scholars: some believe it was originally intended as the first chapter of Dracula, but excised from the final work; others that it was based on notes related to that work's first few chapters. Though the setting is Munich - not Transylvania - the unnamed protagonist may yet be Jonathan Harker. It was originally released in 1914 at the behest of Stoker's widow two years after his death as part of the collection Dracula's Guest and Other Weird Stories. It was not published in the United States until nearly 25 years later, in the edition offered here, which preserves the same contents but changes the order of the stories. Includes: Preface by Florence Stoker; Dracula's Guest; The Judge's House; The Burial of the Rats; The Squaw; The Secret of the Growing Gold; The Coming of Abel Behenna; Crooken Sands; A Dream of Red Hands; A Gypsy Prophecy. Though David Selznick bought the film rights in 1933, the motion picture he released in 1936 under the title Dracula's Daughter bears no resemblance to the Dracula story included here. While the rest of the volume's stories do not feature vampires, they are grim and sometimes gruesome horror stories in their own right, and an interesting foil for the much different style of Dracula, which was an epistolary novel.
