In this strange complex of time and space anything can happen

That was really interesting - I think I need to read Dracula again, as I've hated it every time I've read it in the past. I've always suffered from the general complaint that Stoker isn't a good enough writer to successfully sustain a work done in the epistolary style. In order for such a novel to work, each character should have a strong - and ideally instantly recognisable - voice. I've always found myself thumbing back to the beginning of sections so I could remember whether it was a male or female character who was writing, never mind being able to distinguish between Mina's and Lucy's tones. My last read was also somewhat hampered by the fact that the last Dracula film I'd seen was Dracula: Dead and Loving It, which makes it kind of hard to take any of it seriously.
