Event Description

Florence Stoker: a witty, beautiful and brilliant social powerhouse whose life has long been overshadowed by one of popular culture's most enduring monsters, Dracula. From literary salons and Victorian high society to Oscar Wilde, Bram Stoker and the shadows that inspired a gothic masterpiece, this captivating novel brings to life a woman's history that has largely been overlooked.

Books will be available for purchase on the night from Devonport Bookshop. Stay to meet Karen and have your copy personally signed.
