W.W.Norton & Heffers invite you to join Leslie S. Klinger in celebrating the publication of The New Annotated Dracula by Bram Stoker.

Travelling through two hundred years of popular culture and myth as well as graveyards and the wilds of Transylvania, Leslie S. Klinger, the foremost authority on Sherlock Holmes and now Dracula, illuminates every aspect of Bram Stoker’s haunting novel (including an examination of the original typescript with its shockingly different ending). He investigates the many subtexts of the story and the political, economic, feminist, psychological and historical threads. Employing his superb literary detective skills, Klinger mines this 1897 classic for nuggets that will surprise even the most die-hard Dracula fans.
