Bu e-kitob haqida
'Snow Bound: The Record of a Theatrical Touring Party' is a collection of short stories by Bram Stoker, the acclaimed author of 'Dracula' which is best known for its 1931 silver screen rendition of the same name, starring Bela Lugosi.
A train traveling across Scotland in the thick of winter is brought to a sudden halt by an intense snowstorm. All the passengers are members of a travelling theatrical entourage, they decide to light a fire in one of the carriages and huddle around it to stave off the extreme cold. With nothing to do but wait to be rescued, they pass the time by sharing stories, some are full of sorrow while others are brimming with mirth and cheer.
A highly intriguing piece among Bram Stoker's body of work, this collection is a testament to his long-standing friendship with renowned Irish actor Sir Henry Irving, who proved a significant influence on Stoker.
Highly recommended for readers who fancy a spin on 'The Orient Express'. This offers special insight into the minds and hearts of actors and performers from well before Agatha Christie's time, by none other than one of the all-time masters of the horror genre. Abraham "Bram" Stoker was born in Dublin in 1847. Turning to fiction in his later years, Stoker published his first short story 'The Crystal Cup' (1872) in London Society magazine. In the 1880s and 1890s, he published 'Under the Sunset' (1882) and an adventure novel titled 'The Snake’s Pass' (1890). It was the publication of 'Dracula' in 1897 which launched Stoker into literary stardom.
