The Man edition by Bram Stoker Reference eBooks

Nobody complains about something for nothing right? Well, I would, and wasting time reading a bad book would be something I'd regret... Not with this one.
A longer book (for a freebie), with a bit of everything in it. Romance, action, drama, death, tragedy.

Tells the story of Stephen, a girl (yes a girl) growing up in rural England in the 19th Century. A girl way ahead of her times, only daughter (her dad wanted a boy hence her name), who inherits a fortune. The Man tells the story of her and her two main love interests, and one of their adventures overseas. It also touches on good and bad times growing up, and Stephen's relationship with her aunt.
Telling too much more would give a lot away of the plot but it is well written, though drags at times (but not often). Great character development, not only Stephen, but her best friend Harold and a lot of other characters, some who don't enter the story until well into the second half.

Not the kind of story I would usually read, though I enjoyed it immensely after being recommended by a friend.
4 - 4 1/2 stars

The Man edition by Bram Stoker Reference eBooks Reviews


This has to be the best book I've ever read, that I didn't hear about in advance. It starts out slow, but after a while became a major page turner. I found myself crying during parts of it! It is set in the very late 1800's and the story centers around a young woman who has a great ideas for her life; I liked her ideas and do well remember being frustrated with the "way things were" when I was the same age. Problems develop for her when she makes a decision in haste, and acts upon it. I was completely impressed her ability to recognize her error, and how she corrects it. Loved it! Would make an excellent film!
I really enjoyed this book. Who says after writing dracula you can't be a little touchy feely in another book.
Classic Stoker!!! LOVE!
Reading this story was like mining through really hard stone; it took awhile to get through, but embedded in the walls of the text was the occasional beautiful gem of a sentence.

The story itself was okay, lots of waiting for these two numbskulls to realize they love each other. I wanted to shout at each of them for how ignorant they were of each other's feelings.
I really wanted to like this book. What kept me going through the first third of the book was the interesting presentation of gender roles during this time period, in the form of the young female protagonist's challenges of the status quo. Thankfully, just as this was getting old, something happened which hooked me into caring about the actual characters, which carried me the rest of the way through the book. Like many books of this time period, there's more "telling" than "showing", which generally I don't find to be a problem, but huge expanses of time, or potentially really interesting events are completely glossed over. This made me continuously think about how if I had the time, it would be fun to do a rewrite of this novel, reconfiguring it as a trilogy in order to really flesh out the characters. Basically, I think this novel could have been great if it had had a substantial edit or two.

It is, however, from more of an academic standpoint, an interesting glimpse into concepts of gender relations, filial duty, and honor and shame at this time period. From a modern standpoint though, the end transformation of the Stephen character is woefully disappointing.
Chose this book to read for Halloween and instead of being a horror story like so much of Stoker's work, found it to be a sweet love story. The classics are one of the best ways to learn and understand how people in different eras interpreted life. Well worth the read especially for modern women who might need a check on their views. Worth the read!
A surprisingly lovely story that is old fashioned and paced for the one willing to wait. Yes it is predictable in some ways, but there are enough ways that Stoker keeps the story going that kept me interested to the end.
