MPR's Midmorning discusses Dracula through the ages

A lawyer has turned his obsession with Victorian times and its most prominent characters into a new book that catalogues everything one might hope to know about Dracula.
Guest Leslie Klinger: Editor of "The New Annotated Dracula." He's also the editor of "The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes."

Everything one might hope to know? That just made me wonder what you know already. Share it here in the comments.

*eyebrows* The most recent caller just asked about the tension between fear and arousal.

I am eager to listen to this! Someone recently posted an article on this same subject which reminded me of the wonderful book by Elizabeth Kostova, The Historian, and how it led me to - finally! - read Stoker's Dracula, which is just about the scariest book I've ever read.

I'll definitely put The Annotated Dracula on my Christmas Wish List.
