This is the second time I'm reading this book. Bram Stoker (1847-1912)was a brilliant and creative writer, on a par with Edgar Allan Poe in terms of subject matter and suspense. Stoker is an underrated but important author whom students should get to know. I would recommend it in MFA courses.
Stoker is most known for the classic Dracula which overshadows his excellence as a short story writer. My personal favorites are The Judge's House and The Secret of the Growing Gold.
