Since its publication in 1897, Dracula continues to terrify readers with its depiction of a vampire with an insatiable thirst for blood and the group of hunters determined to end his existence before he destroys a young woman's soul.
原文摘录
· · · · · ·
"You are a clever man, friend John, you reason well, and your wit is bold, but you are too prejudiced. You do not let your eyes see nor your ears hear, and that which is outside your daily life is not of account to you. Do you not think that there are things which you cannot understand, and yet which are; that some people see things that others cannot? But there are things old and new which must not be contemplate by men's eyes, because they know-or think they know-some things which other men have told them. Ah, it is the fault of our science that it wants to explain all; and if it explain not, then it says there is nothing to explain. (查看原文)
And you, their best beloved one, are now to me, flesh of my flesh; blood of my blood; kin of my kin; my bountiful wine-press for a while; and shall be later on my companion and my helper. (查看原文)

好久没有读过这么喜欢的精彩的小说了。尽管是日记体形式的。在这本小说里，斯托克喜欢用大量的场景刻画来烘托恐怖的气氛。宏大壮观的自然景观描写、昏暗危险的野外环境、恐怖如斯的怪物刻画、阴暗诡异的情景描写，写的都极其精彩。如小说刚开始的部分，对乔纳森快要抵达古堡一路的描写，扣人心弦，像坐过山车时一路直往下冲的感觉。这些描写为接下来可怕的古堡经历做了很好的铺垫。小说最后面米娜前往德古拉城堡的行程中，在她快要... 好久没有读过这么喜欢的精彩的小说了。尽管是日记体形式的。在这本小说里，斯托克喜欢用大量的场景刻画来烘托恐怖的气氛。宏大壮观的自然景观描写、昏暗危险的野外环境、恐怖如斯的怪物刻画、阴暗诡异的情景描写，写的都极其精彩。如小说刚开始的部分，对乔纳森快要抵达古堡一路的描写，扣人心弦，像坐过山车时一路直往下冲的感觉。这些描写为接下来可怕的古堡经历做了很好的铺垫。小说最后面米娜前往德古拉城堡的行程中，在她快要变异之前，有一段她欣赏景物的描写，以她自己的视角，德古拉的故乡的景色显得如此的温软美好。这把米娜的那种女性的坚韧乐观凸显的淋淋尽致，尽管快要变异，依然心向光明，对邪恶永不低头。这部分的描写让我想起某个伟人说的一句话：前途是光明的，道路是曲折的。面对未知的未来，永远保持乐观。 (展开)

日记体书信体在当时应该算一种创新的写法，但感觉叙事节奏有点慢，开始读好几次差点要放弃了，不过好在坚持下来了，作为吸血鬼鼻祖还是比较经典的。

前面几章铺垫让人稍许有些放弃继续阅读的感觉，好在后面故事越来越精彩。这是看的第4本英文原著小说，本书英文难度高于奥威尔的1984。词汇量以及句子（特别是书中一些下层阶级的人的对白）明显上了一个台阶，还得多加强阅读 :-(

奔着吸血鬼主题去看的。看了开头后想知道伯爵为什么变成了吸血鬼，带着这个问题去读就会觉得故事节奏比较慢，可能这样才比较真实，毕竟抓吸血鬼哪是一件寻常事🤪。中间有很多人物描写，能体现出吸血鬼猎人们都是妥妥的正义使者。看到最后好像没有在文中找到我想要的答案。结局的场面还挺壮烈的，看到了正义的光芒。

For the blood is the life.
