"With careful and meticulous textual analysis and in clear and succinct prose, Senf traces Gothic patterns, images and themes throughout Bram Stoker's significant body of fiction. From his earliest short stories in the 1870s through his major novels (including, of course, "Dracula"), Senf demonstrates how Stoker developed a deeper sense of the Gothic as a means of social commentary. This is an invaluable companion for readers of Victorian Gothic."--Elizabeth Miller, Memorial University of Newfoundland
