I haven't read it yet but the book itself is just stunning. I love the marbled slipcase, the profuse illustrations, and even the way the spine shines a bit spookily in half-light.Good enough to eat.

Product details
<blockquote>‘Listen to them – the children of the night. What music they make!’</blockquote>Bram Stoker’s masterpiece, in which the instantly recognisable Count Dracula plans to sate his dreadful appetites in England only to be thwarted by an intrepid band of friends, remains an enthralling read. Exploring themes of sexuality, religion, technology and good versus evil, and told through journal entries, letters and telegrams, its cultural and literary significance is undisputed. This collector’s edition includes 15 darkly mesmerising illustrations by acclaimed British artist Angela Barrett, each decorated with an exquisite border. The illustrations accentuate the sense of foreboding and despair in Stoker’s narrative, while the metallic-blocked binding and blood-red marbling on the slipcase complete this sumptuous new edition of the classic 19th-century horror.

The quality of this book is superb and adds to the pleasure of rereading this classic of Gothic horror. I could easily have gotten a cheep paperback copy of Dracula, but the quality of this printing really adds to the reading experience for me.

Sorry, I meant to give this review sooner! I am absolutely amazed with this Dracula brook, the illustrations, and cover/binding/design!!! This is a true "1897 Europe" text. (Reprint obviously) It is the exact first edition, "Tomorrow, tomorrow", for anyone who is curious. That is exactly what I wanted. The book arrived in absolutely flawless care (thank you so so so much to customer service for helping me so quickly with all my inquiries 🥰). This book was a gift and the recipient was absolutely ecstatic. The shipping box was very well padded with a hand-signed note from the person who packed it. I was very impressed. Shipping from the UK to the US was surprisingly fast. 7 days I think in total? Something like that. Couldn't be more impressed. Thank you again Folio Society. You will definitely be my go-to now for special edition books!
