>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 10 20:41:42 2017 No.8958018 >>8957786 It's definitely better, more interesting stylistically as everything is delivered through sort of primary sources.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 10 21:42:24 2017 No.8958302 >>8957786 No. Frankenstein is a gothic novel about Romantic themes and the nature of man. Dracula kind of a high brow pulp novel that's about Victorian social fears.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jan 10 21:47:33 2017 No.8958328 Read it in a gothic genre study course. Was interesting but wouldn't read again. Wouldn't recommend for a fun read. Kinda depends why you're interested in the first place I guess.
