Description

The acclaimed Couture Classics with cover designs by Ruben Toledo have become collector's items in the worlds of literature, fashion, design, and popular culture. Now, Toledo's signature style graces the covers of three new Deluxe Editions of gothic literature greats-"Jane Eyre, Dracula," and "The Picture of Dorian Gray"-capturing the haunting beauty, sensual horror, and decadence of these iconic tales.
Perfect additions to the first set of Couture Classics: "Wuthering Heights, Pride and Prejudice," and "The Scarlet Letter."

Reviews

"Those who cannot find their own reflection in Bram Stoker's still-living creation are surely the undead ."-- New York Times Review of Books"An exercise in masculine anxiety and nationalist paranoia, Stoker's novel is filled with scenes that are staggeringly lurid and perverse.... The one in Highgate cemetery, where Arthur and Van Helsing drive a stake through the writhing body of the vampirised Lucy Westenra, is my favourite."-- Sarah Waters, author of The Little Stranger "It is splendid. No book since Mrs. Shelley's Frankenstein or indeed any other at all has come near yours in originality, or terror."-- Bram Stoker's Mother
