Dracula is an 1897 Gothic horror novel by Irish author Bram Stoker. It introduced Count Dracula, and established many conventions of subsequent vampire fantasy. The novel tells the story of Dracula's attempt to move from Transylvania to England so that he may find new blood and spread the undead curse, and of the battle between Dracula and a small group of men and a woman led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing. The story is told in epistolary format, as a series of letters, diary entries, newspaper articles, and ships' log entries, whose narrators are the novel's protagonists, and occasionally supplemented with newspaper clippings relating events not directly witnessed. The events portrayed in the novel take place chronologically and largely in England and Transylvania during the 1890s and all transpire within the same year between 3 May and 6 November. A short note is located at the end of the final chapter written 7 years after the events outlined in the novel.

Northanger Abbey was the first of Jane Austen's novels to be completed for publication, in 1803, but it wasn't until after her death in 1817 that it was published, along with her other novel Persuasion. The novel is a satire of the Gothic novels popular at the time of its first writing in 1798-99. This "coming of age," story revolves around the main character, Catherine, a young and naïve "heroine," who entertains us on her journey of self-knowledge as she gains a better understanding of the world and those around her. Because of her experiences, reality sets in and she discovers that she is not like other women who crave for wealth or social acceptance, but instead she is a true heroine in that she is an ordinary young woman who wishes to have nothing but happiness and a genuine sense of morality.

Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein' is a groundbreaking work of gothic fiction that delves into themes of creation, ambition, and the consequences of playing God. Written in the early 19th century, the novel is known for its intricate narrative structure, combining elements of horror, science fiction, and philosophical inquiry. The original 1818 edition offers readers a raw and unaltered look at the story of Victor Frankenstein and his ill-fated experiment to create life, showcasing Shelley's skill in crafting a gripping and thought-provoking tale. The prose is rich in detail and evocative language, inviting readers into a world of moral dilemmas and existential questions. Mary Shelley, as the daughter of famed writers Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin, was exposed to intellectual and literary circles from a young age. The tragic events in her personal life, including the loss of her children, may have influenced her exploration of grief and loss in 'Frankenstein.' Shelley's background in Romantic literature and her own experiences with loss contribute to the depth and complexity of the novel. I highly recommend 'Frankenstein' to readers interested in exploring the darker aspects of human nature, the ethical implications of scientific advancement, and the enduring appeal of gothic fiction. Mary Shelley's timeless work continues to provoke discussion and reflection on the human condition, making it a must-read for fans of classic literature.
