The Historian
by Elizabeth Kostova
Publisher TimeWarner
Year 2006 ISBN 0751537284
Format Paperback
Size 20 by 13cm with 704 pages
Three generations search for Dracula's resting place, and their stories are nested within each other, so that we know that at least two quests ended badly. Kostova rations her thrills very carefully so that we jump out of our chair at quite slight surprises, especially when we have come to expect buckets of blood and loud bangs. She also has a profound and well-communicated sense of place and period, so that the book is equally at home in 1930s Rumania, Cold War Budapest and 1970s Oxford.
Light wear to edges of cover, otherwise good condition
